Carnivores!

These are pitcher plants – they’re carnivorous, like Venus Flytraps are, and they’re native to the southeast. I have a container of them growing on our back deck

When I get my ducks in a row, I want to build a carnivorous garden bed in the backyard. I love them.

Like most horrible things, they’re beautiful. I see the flies hovering around them and wish I could warn the flies away, but instead I sit and watch them fly into the trap, doomed.
