Bug Eating Carnivorous Plants

By Lisa VanWilliams
Bug your kids out literally with these cool bug/insect eating carnivorous plants. That perfect "something creepy" for the month of October! Whole Foods was carrying two kinds at two different prices. The kids really get a kick out of these and they can't wait to see how it all works.

Charles Darwin called The Venus Fly Trap "one of the most wonderful plants in the world" because of it's elaborate ability to trap and break down insects. Ants, flies, spiders, and beetles can be safely fed to your very own plant. They like bright light, moist soil, and good drainage.
