In a post, you said “My first encounter with carnivorous plants was over 40 years ago. I was at Boy Scout camp in the Adirondack mountains up by Lake Placid. I was doing an environmental science badge and needed to make observations of a biome. There was a bog just down the trail from our campsite, so I decided to do it. In the bog I discovered these plants that were glittering in the sun and had sticky stuff on the end of tentacles! I plucked one out (I now regret that choice) and showed to my Scoutmaster. He told me that it was a sundew, and that it ate bugs! I thought that was the coolest thing I had ever heard and was determined to learn more about that. “
