Actually, the stink, to me, was the most biologically interesting part ==
of the flower.  I just couldn't believe how perfectly the flower =
imitated roadkill.  Of course my family and friends think I'm crazy for =
making a Yahoo Photo Album.  If you could just sleep in the family room =
for the few days it's in flower, it would definitely be worth it, in my =
opinion, to get it to grow successfully.

Thanks for prompt answer.  I know the geodic soil you speak of in =
southern Indiana.  Sticky when wet, lousy drainage, except that you're =
on a hill, so most of it drains off.  Not unlike the the  soil in =
western Turkey where these things are native, and where one of the big =
wholesale nurseries is.  I suspect that the other important parameter is ==
the sun exposure.  Mine may not have gotten enough. I didn't want to =
plant the stinkers too close to the bedroom window.  Adam Fikso in =
