Handy Man found another one! I posted a few months ago about Handy Man and his Venus Fly Trap. Soon after that post that poor plant started going down hill fast. It turned black and looked like it was going to die. But as the weather got warmer Handy Man set it outside and basically forgot about it. He showed it to me a few days ago and it's thriving again!
A few weeks ago he found another fly eating plant to experiment with. Of course I HAD to take some pictures.
(Uhhhh, yeah... Please don't mind the dust, my house has been like a construction site lately, I can't keep up!)
It has these really dainty flowers on long stems.
The main plant has all this tiny drops of sticky stuff on the leaves. That bugs stick to. And hair. It's kinda gross.
Pretty interesting, uh?!
Very cool!!!

Gross, but cool! Glad the venus fly trap made it.

why do fly eating plants die when they eat their own food
