Scented Beauty

Elsa and I noticed that our regal snake-plant had suddenly opened some flowers this evening! Little white fireworks climbing a spike among the richly colored, tall and narrow leaves.



But it took two people walking into the room with noses twitching and searching glances before we realized that the new "musty" and "swampy" odour was to traced to these beautiful blossoms. (I wonder which critters would be most attracted to this pungent perfume!) 

The plant now gets a vacation in the porch, where we will still have to find ways to enjoy this rare sight.
