As most of you know... I think... Their is a bog, type thing on my land that looks to be the type one might find MI CP in, but I have never seen any. Well, I've been studying up on Butterwarts (insted of chem for my exam like I should be) and I know have reson to beleave their may in fact be Butterwarts still alive in the area. I am rather excited, but I am afraid I still do not know the name os the spiecies
or if it has a visable winter form. However, in the last few months I have learned so much from everyone here about the CPs which I had never cultivated myself that I feel I am also ready to seek out sleeping sundew. Ironically, the area I now suspect is litterally a spunge of dead and live non-vasular plants and you can't even put wait onto it without being sucked in. I've never been pulled in all the way befor, but I did looks my balance and go in up to the hip with one leg, lol. Thank goodness I has a sapling to grab onto. Anyways, I digress. I'm go'n on a plant hunt.

P.S. Past hunts have found
Skunk Cabbage (has this thing ever been tested for carnivorious flowers, I mean what the heck is up with a water filling flower?)
Jack in the Pulpit - hey it's rare
Evening Primrose in bloom - Now THAT was a treat, talk about luck
Maybe an Indian pipe (couldn't find the plant again to varify
)
Several uncommon Violets
and buttercups
Yah, fairly boring stuff, but they do tend to live in the same habbitat and jewle weed covers EVERYTHING in the spring. Maybe I'll just a dreamer, but it will give me something to do
