Re: carnivorous plants was: Clivia Golden Dragon

You're welcome, Bonnie...that is a fantastic site.  Barry has
provided so much for net gardeners.

Well, 9 ought to be fascinated by carnivorous plants!  Don't think
they will do in a trough tho', they have to have a bog - unless you
mean a trough that holds water.

To start him off, pick out a few factoids from the FAQ and show him
some of the pictures on that site...that ought to prick his
curiosity.
