Commonly called a Voodoo Lily because of its bizare flowering habit and smell. The flower is actually quite lovely but is fly-polinated and stinky. It will bloom from the dry bulb in late winter without roots. After flowering these will send up large frilly leaf. It prefers some shade. It is quite easy to bring inside during its winter dormant season for storage until things warm up.
The tuber is actually used for food in Asia and is becoming popular as a health food here in the US. The tubers can grow HUGE.
For sale are _SMALL_ bulbs about 1/2 to 3/4 inch across. They will need to grow for a few seasons before blooming, but you can enjoy the lovely leaf soon after planting. Even small bulbs are usually expensive.
