and to see the garden center to see if there were any cp's . when i went to the garden center its was really quiet and there was only one person there . I said " do you sell venus flytraps " the guy said " no , sorry , i have'nt seen those for a long time , i don't think they were ver sold here because people feared that the plant bite " , isn't this rediculous , these are very stupid old rumors , i wish that if people knew how to grow orchids and african violets then why can't they learn and grow cps . i told the guy " thats stupid , i have grown many different species of carnivorous plants including the venus flytrap and they don't bite " the guy said " sry , too many people don't do the research and they assume that the plants are aggressive and will grow big and harm the grower , try OSH " . never have i heard a pile of crap about carnivorous plants " well , is there anyways there well ever be cp's here , i can try to give you names of a few companyies that have these plants and you can try to sell them " the guy still said the same old thing . I wish people knew about cp's as well as they knew other plants . very rediculous /

They bite, grow big and get aggressive. Yet people still want them. Go figure.

If people are stupid, and think that plants bite, I'd rather be a biting plant than a stupid human.

I am not sure if they are stupid...maybe just a little bit uneducated about vfts. It is like someone talking chemistry to me - I would be giving them the look like someone let one
