That Mystery Plant
Last Tuesday I showed the buds from one of my house plants and asked if anyone could guess what the plant was. Only Jan was brave enough to have a go. Unfortunately Jan it isn't an orchid. In fact it is a Venus Fly Trap. I have had a few over the years but this is the first time I have seen one produce flowers; and over night the first one opened. Nothing spectacular but none the less interesting, to me anyway.

I would never, ever have thought of that John :-) You must be doing something right if it's flowering, well done! I have seen them in garden centres and wondered about buying one but never quite got 'round tuit' ;-)
ReplyDeleteIt does look a lot healthier that the ones I have had in the past.
DeleteNever seen one flower before John.
