Recently I found an unusual addition to the shelf of plant supplies.
That is exactly what it says on the label. That is a bottle of freeze dried crickets. I am glad I didn’t find that in the spice drawer.
So, what the heck is that for? See the jar sitting behind it?
That has a Drosera in it. Here’s a better look.
A Drosera eats crickets.
Really.
It eats crickets!
Want a closer look?
There is still a piece of lunch on one of the upper claws. Don’t get too close! It bites!
That is one scary looking plant. You can ask the crickets.
Well, actually, you can’t ask the crickets because they have been freeze dried. But you get the idea.
If you were a teeny tiny little man…. about the size of a cricket… that would be a Man Eating Plant.
OK. That’s a stretch. Work with me here.
