LOL, you're so funny. I'm glad it didn't smell for you. I'll have to go back in the spring to see if they've flowered.
You too have a wonderful New Year! I hope to see you soon :)
Actually, I had one in my garden, but being the brown thumb I am, I killed it. On mine the flowers were about 3 inches across, and they didn't smell like carrion thankfully, but they did attract flies rather than bees so i guess they smelled like meat to the bug world.
Have a lovely New Year, Cindy!
Wow, thank you for the ID, Ava! Have you seen this one there? It's high up on Condor Ridge above the overlook where the Condors are. So many amazing plants and a nice selection of locals!
