Amorphophallus konjac
 
This smelly beauty is currently in blooming my greenhouse... I call it Emily, as I am sure that the Corpse Bride would have smelled exactly like this plant... :)

My wife would kill me if I grew one of those. But at least then when the neighbors complained about the smell of my rotting corpse she could say it was the flower. :tombstone:

Mine are still too young/small to bloom but that's okay -- I grow them for the foliage.

yowza! good growing!
another OB member who lives not too far from me, grew these (or another quite similar) in her yard - they eventually removed them because of the smell ...

How long do they put out that scent? The variety I have, the scent only last about 4 to 6 hours.
