"We’ve got a type of pitcher plant in boggy areas here..."

Down here too.  The kind we've got down here stinks like crap and it's always got flies all around it.

A perfect plan.  The gardener won't come within fifty feet of that smell.

The Venus Flytrap is another carnivorous plant.
Native to S.Eastern NC and N.Eastern SC.

Strange, an area that apparently was hit by a meteor swarm many moons ago.

Hey, I’m just sayin’.
