Amorphophallus ID please


Greetings, all!

 

I need some help with an ID. I was given this tuber as an unknown Amorphophallus. It has bloomed, but I have not seen a leaf as of yet. I apologize for the poor photos . . . I had to borrow a camera as mine was elsewhere. The petiole is a tan/brown with black and white spots. The entire plant above ground is about 45 cm tall. When evening was falling it began to emit a most powerful rotting flesh/ bad cheese odor. Very sharp.

 

Any help would be appreciated.

 

Thanks in advance,

Christopher
