Does anyone grow this? What causes the weird smell on the foliage?

I have been growing it, but only since spring. What does yours smell like? Some people say rotted meat. I think mine smells a little like root beer.

We have one. They are a bit smelly but they produce a lot of blooms so we don't mind the smell:

I have the tropical type, it is either A.elegans or A.durior. It was called Calico flower type by the nursery people. The bell of the flower is about the size of my open palm 3" cross or so. After the flower drops the seed pod forms and looks like an upside umbrella when open. I have tons of seeds if you want some email me through my page and I will send you some. I have the best luck with nature planting the seed but I think that is because you don;t plant them deep in the dirt. They do need moist rich soil.
