hohoho, today, i went to the church where my mum usually goes. and i came back home from visiting afew nurseries at my home. kovan area, nice plants. i carried the thought to buy a pitcher plant ( carnivorous plant ), as i did not expect to find any venus fly-traps... i went from one nursary to another. with every next nursary i went, the pitcher plants look nicer and nicer. 1stly from those gigantic dangling ones then at last to the firm standing ones that i prefer. i initially wanted to get one of those upright standing pitcher plants but later the elderly man who i enquired abou the pitcher plants tld me about venus flytraps i got excited - anyone who is a kid at heart will be! ^^

i saw many cacti, nice orchids. but the highlights were cute, ridiculous pitcher plants and also those beautiful ones ( i have to go back there and buy! i heard the species i want is seasonal lol. last of all i also saw... STRAWBERRIES! yea strawberry plant, weird to see it bearring fruit in sg ...

here are the photos :)

this is the pitcher plant i wanna buy!

close-up. i like its slightly pinkish colour at its leaves. bad photo-quality to show that properly..

the surprising sight..

my little babies! ( maybe i should give my plant a name :D )

i then went home to reseach, i realized that venus flytraps are not easy to manage at all.... but the harder it is, more interesting it gets. currently only one trap is shut. in the plant there are - i counted - approximatly 20 traps... thats alot for a small plant. so i'll see ow it goes from here.
