"Sex + Death" at the botanic gardens. That's what it says if you look carefully. I wonder if any American botanic gardens has ever spelled out those words in a flower bed. It's a show about:
"Stunning displays of orchids and carnivorous plants with humorous interpretation tell the story of fundamental evolutionary processes. The seduction of insects by plants, their unwitting co-operation and the cruel deception leading to inevitable death are played out using rare and unusual orchids and sinister carnivorous plants."
And now for some bats!

At Safeway yesterday I saw a Venus flytrap tucked in with the peaches. It was probably the healthiest flytrap I've seen. None of the other fruit displays had carnivorous plants, so I don't know whether it was an accident or someone's clever idea.
Vaguely relevant.
