| Venus Flytrap!!! Plant? or pet?  | | | | Venus Flytrap: Carnivorous plant (eats meat)*** The Venus Flytrap’s leaf can snap shut in less than a second but is limited to the number of times it can do this during its life span. Rumor has it that it can only open seven times during its whole life! *** Digestion of a single insect can take up to two weeks before it re-opens. One Venus Flytrap eats about a handful of flies each month. *** They can live underwater for months so there are many ways to set up your terrarium. Don't forget to feed it insects that have died of natural causes or you will kill your plant. Yes, you can use the flyswatter to produce a chemical-free meal! It's best to feed your plant fresh kill.*** They are thought to reproduce by either cross pollination or self pollination but is currently unknown as to which. They are usually found in bogs such as the ones found in North and South Carolina.*** At best, your plant will grow to a size of about 12 centimeters. They don't get anywhere near as big as the ones we've all seen on The Rocky Horror Picture Show.*** Never, ever fertilize your Venus Flytrap or feed it high fat content like hamburger. You'll kill it immediately!*** Venus Flytraps are an awesome addition to any gardener's home and a great conversation piece. So, what do you think? Should something that eats meat be called a plant or a pet? | | Venus Flytrap: Carnivorous plant (eats meat) | | | | | | | | | Alexa's Flowers Flowers& Gifts for all occasions! www.alexasflowers.com

| | It is true that they are difficult to cultivate from seed. If healthy plants are allowed to flower, successful pollination will result in the production of dozens of small, shiny black seeds. Plants can be propagated by seed, although seedlings will take several years to mature. More commonly, they may be propagated by division in spring or summer. | | | | jwfarrimond (3266)

| | The main difficulty with them is that being bog plants they are very sensitive to getting even a little bit dried out. | | | | | | | Alexa's Flowers Flowers & Gifts for all occasions! www.alexasflowers.com | add comment | | | |

| | A little of both? We bought one for my daughter and she had a great time feeding it, then we transplanted it into a terrarium and it died. We thought it was totally gone but it grew back. | | | | | | | | | | Super cheap Greenhouse Cheap Greenhouse at Best-Price.com!
