Here is a close up of the stems. Most people mistake this plant for a small odd tree. I get more comments on this plant than just about any in my garden. It seems once they find out what it flowers they get a bit scared about the smell and strangness of the flower. But the flower only last a few days and usually only smells for one day. I have been in the local newspaper over the flowering of this plant.
