I was just wondering why you guys keep flytraps?
Most of the guys i know keep them because they reckon they are cool...they are so materialistic it's scary. I don't keep them because i think they are "cool"-i keep them because i think it is mind bogging that an organism without a brain has been able to evolve,or still is evolving,into a plant that is able to capture insects and eat them. I mean i like the way these plants get some of their own back, it's frustrating when i see catipillars eating away at my other plants,but these plants simply give the catipillars the taste of their own medicine and i like it. Also everything about these plants is so interesting and amazing i find trouble beliving you can buy them from K-mart for a lousy six dollars. The fact that they can survive in extremly harsh conditions is one of their more appealing characteristics as well,being able to survive in places other plants wouldn't beable to. Also the fact that i can raise such a facsinating plant in my own home gives me some sence of achivement. Well i could rabble on all day so i better stop-it is getting a bit long
