"Corpse plant" is more common. They are an interesting plant. When they bloom, they stink! Don't ever touch a bloom, its as bad as getting sprayed from a skunk. But the stink attracks, gnats, flies, etc. I have then in a bed at the corner of my house. When in bloom, the flying buggies go there, not around my porches. Here's a link to the wikipedia page Corpse plant

I take it you have found out the hard way. Oops! It is great if it works on bugs. The gnats have been bad here this year. Might have to consider it.
