Very interesting plant! I only saw these in films long time ago!
I wonder how you could stand the nasty smell for so long!! But the colours and textures of the petals are very unique!! Nature is full of wonder!

Fortunately, the smell is only felt when the nose is very close to the flower. Stapelia grows on the balcony in a hanging pot. Therefore, I absolutely do not feel this nasty smell.
The only thing I did not like was flies. But the mantis almost solved this problem. And the other way out, if mantis the next time does not come to the rescue, then I'll sprinkle with the spray from the flies. Only now not on flowers - and quite near, including a flower pot. And the flowers are very beautiful, especially I like their unusual color and fluffiness!
I have still interesting Stapelia.
Now I can post photos, since my friend yesterday pumped them from my tablet to my computer.
