Iām so grateful for @Seymour (beatified this day as St. Seymour, patron saint of carnivorous plants and memes. āSt. Seymour, pray for our traps, now and at the hour of their digestion. Amen.ā) for creating the #cpclubthursday š . I can share my two (so far) CP babies. The first is Urnest, my white-topped pitcher. Heās in my whiskey barrel (plastic) bog outside and is just now emergency from sleep. And Oliver, my VFT that I rescued from the ally of a big box and considered him at home in my grow tent as he recovers and gains his strength.
