Now that you have seen the strange plants at the CSSM, here is an update on one of our own Strange Plants, the Man-Eating-Plant that I have called Audrey Jr. The blooms have made considerable progress.
We have fed the plant several mosquitoes that made the mistake of coming indoors. That flower stalk in the middle has grown so tall that we not only had to add a penthouse roof over it, but we also had to cut a hole in the roof to let it out. The plastic cup is there to maintain the rain forest humidity that it needs to thrive. Here is a closer view of the flowers.
It looks like those are flower buds.
I will try to keep an eye on this so that I can capture what the flowers look like when they finally open.
Stay tuned.
