Finch
Whats it to ya?
I was browsing the internet
and came upon this site
it soundind interesting, but my further serching coudn't find any more information of suitable size about the plant. Unfortunatly i dont know if the sorce is credible or even true. the so called 'flower' on the page looks nothing like the supposed flower of the same species on the link given. Does anyone know about this plant
? it sounds interesting... but is it true?
P.s and the little walking things are there because... i was bored
[b said:Quote[/b] ]I found this plant when I was around 13, thinking it was carnivorous. Years later, in 1995, I discovered the Carnivorous Plant Internet Discussion Group, and mentioned it. Jan informed me that it was not carnivorous, but related to the Dutchman's Pipe. The trap actually captures the insect not to digest it, but to ensure pollination! Insects are lured to this opening of the trap, then they go down into the tube. The plant senses the prey, closes the opening, and the insect is forced to spend it's remaining time inside. The insect ( bored to death ) will at least pollinate the flower before dying
