What would happen if these plants keep on growing and eating... I cannot imagine if anyone would to purposely keep feeding the plant... ??? ;-)

Ew, eww. I don't know if I even want to read this story. I guess if you go hiking with your family there, you hang onto your baby... Sorry, not in the best of taste, but really!

If the plants drown rats, then they can't be all bad:) Seriously though, that was an extremely interesting read. And pink ferns and blue mushrooms????

Finally got my computer fixed so that I can leave comments here.
