Every year we have appear in our garden a number of very similar flowers, which we have aptly named the stink lily - smells of rotting flesh and attracts flies. A very long dark purple stamen with a very beautiful velvety looking single petal/sheath. Not so rare to us as it flowers every year - our garden is almost 100 years old
