  2. Hi Cathy,

    It's Leslie here, reading your posting from my home in chilly Canada, as a member of the SLJ team.

    I think you've done a good job identifying 3 differences and 3 similarities between the 2 plants you chose. And you've posted the photos of them as well - super!

    Do you like to visit gardens and see flower beds? Do you like 'pretty' flowers or unusual ones, like the 10 that are listed on this site?

    I find it hard to believe that a plant can 'eat' an insect. So odd!! But true!! We have Pitcher plants and Sundew plants in Canada that trap and 'eat' insects, not by chewing them but by killing them with chemicals. I'm glad I'm not a fly!!

    Keep up your good work and I'll continue to enjoy reading your blog.

    Cheers,

    Leslie
