Re: Synandrospadix first bloom of season

Mine smells like moderately rotten meat - not terrible and I am finally getting multiple flowers after growing it for 15-20 years, or so!  I put it in the hallway of my NY apt building because the tenants think it is weird. A seven-year old remembered it from last spring and said "Hey, there is the toxic worm again - cool!"

Hello Steve
 
What does the bloom smell like? I recall from my Kew days that it has an almost intolerably (to me) foul sweet/chemical smell.

Since there was a thread on this recently, picture attached.

It's on a moderately high-light table, with Eulophia petersii (which is
in bud) and Vanilla chamiisonis (which will be soon). But I could give
it a little more. How much light can these take?
