I am truly sorry for barging in like this..so please forgive me. I have
googled this and have found no answer.. what causes a mother in law tongue
plant to put out an odor of cat pee or cat poo? My brother has posed this
question to me and I have no answer. Maybe someone in this newsgroup can
help me.. again I apologize for barging in but it has me stumped.. can
someone please help... Thanks in advance..

Your plant may be rotting or perhaps a cat ****ed on it? The
flowering sanseveria cluster has a sweet odor.
Funny thing - it smells both sweet and like pee to me - very separate
notes. Mostly sweet, but a hint of the other toward the end of the spike.
