2. The comedy musical Little Shop of Horrors is about a man-eating plant named Audrey II and the bumbling florist who raises her.
3. After a tiny insect touches a bladderwort’s trigger hairs and is sucked in to be devoured, it takes the plant only 30 minutes or less to reset its trap.
4. White-top pitcher plants can grow up to 3 feet tall. And, thanks to their good looks, cultivated ones sometimes end up in floral arrangements.
5. Venus flytraps fascinated Charles Darwin. In his 1875 book Insectivorous Plants he described the Venus flytrap as “one of the most wonderful plants in the world.”
6. Spiriting away Venus flytraps from the wild is now a punishable felony. Perpetrators can expect as much as 25 to 39 months of jail time.
7. Slice open a pitcher plant and you’ll discover crunchy remnants of gobbled-up prey. In one summerlong study over 250 insect species were found inside a single yellow pitcher plant at the end of the season.
