I did a science project way back in junior high on Venus Flytraps... Won first place. :mrgreen:

too bad venus flytraps and pitcher plants aren't too suited for the environment in Canada... i'd love to keep a few of those around - useful things, eating insects... :hehe: :hehe:

well, you could grow most of them indoors, as long as the room stays above 70 degrees... though they do prefer to be warmer.

And lotsa humidity.

I grow mine in a 1 inch deep dish of water, Cobra lilies like to be kept wet, but not watered from the surface. So basically, i just keep the dish filled with water.
Otherwise, it grows just fine outside during the summer.

So desu.

Maybe I should try growing some flytraps again. :)

For anybody who has basic cable:

Did anybody see the season premiere of Anthony Bourdain's "No Reservations" on the Travel Channel? It was a 2 hour episode where he went to Japan & China. Pretty cool.

oh, if you get them bare-root, make sure you use a proper mixture of sand, peat moss, organic soil. no clay soil.

you'll enjoy it, methinks...i didn't catch all of the japan segment but most of it...i think he went to Kansai, and spent most of his time around Osaka.

He related a Japanese saying about ppl from Kyoto, Tokyo, and Osaka that I thought was really interesting:

If a man from Kyoto or Tokyo came into some money, he would spend it all on clothing and shoes, if a man from Osaka came into some money, he would spend it all on food.

hmm.. i guess i should visit Osaka first then. :hehe:

I hate the weather.

I need to find some money first. :puppydog:

yeah, i want to see Osaka on my next visit to Japan...definitely. :bonk: :say_yes:

krim wrote:hmm.. i guess i should visit Osaka first then. :hehe:

Haha...well I've gathered that Osaka is more of a blue collar kind of town...more a working man's town....from all that I've read and seen...the best comedian's are from there...and they have the bomb ass
okonomiyaki and monjayaki.
