It had rotten egg and more-than-usually-smoth fecal notes. The source was an Amorphophallus inflorescence. This was an unexpected first-bloom flowering of a plant from a seed from James Symon (barring errors, which are unlikely within our local context). The seeds were originally identified as A. gigas, sent along with A. titanum seeds. Assistance with identification will be much appreciated (I'm assuming that it's not A. gigas).
