A new one: H. sp. aff. finlaysonii. This surprised me by opening so quickly- I thought the buds would have another week or so. The flowers are also quite small, about 1/4" wide when fully open. The odor- I think fragrance is too kind a word- is truly awful. Like that cup of year old yogurt you found in the back of the fridge after wondering what that stink was for the last week. And that's during the day! Maybe it will smell better when night falls, or maybe it will just stink more expansively.
