They lure insects into death traps, then gorge on their flesh. Is that any way for a plant to behave?
Sure, if the plant is of the carnivorous variety made famous by the  Broadway play and movie, Little Shop of Horrors.
           Meet these plants up close at a presentation by Eric Kunz of Seemore Gardens, Long Island’s only certified grower of these amazing endangered plants. They are the “canary in the coal mine” for water quality, unable to grow if water is polluted.

            Admission: Free
Other notes: Plants available for purchase.
