Thanks, Tony and Tim. Tony, I didn’t know the name Pancratium foetidum, but thanks to Google I see that it’s a Moroccan species. I haven’t noticed too many Moroccans in the neighborhood here. When I think of Pancratium, I think of the Mediterranean sea lilies, I remember some of the moving descriptions of them blooming out of the sand in moonlight and pouring out a delicious scent. But Pancratium FOETIDUM: uh, does it really stink? Just my luck – the only one which might perform well here is the black sheep of the family.
