Ok - Century Plant in this area is similar to what is commonly known as ‘mother in law’ plant. Locally, a potted, indoor plant.
The Corpse plant is entirely different. Thanks for the lesson. :-)

My wife has been growing 2 of them (corpse flowers) for about 9 years now. They are strange plants. So far neither have bloomed yet.

We call that houseplant Mother-in-Law’s Tongue.

Very accurate, if you had a MIL like mine was.
