Typhonium venosum (aka Sauromatum venosum)

For the second straight year this bulb flowered for me.  Growth started in early March and took about 26 days to bloom.  The flower smells pretty bad for about 24 hrs.  After 3-4 days, the bloom collapses.  A time lapse video of the blooming can be found here.
