Being Metal
. . . is not one of my talents.
Yesterday, my awesomeness task was to buy a totally metal plant (preferably something maneating). I bought a bogonia. https://twittertales.wordpress.com/2010/12/06/s36-metal-green-thumb/
Mere hours later, I went to work, tutoring an eleven-year old girl. Guess what she’d just bought?
Yep, she’s more metal than me – and for $17 from Bunnings, too. But are we surprised?

Venus Flytraps are the coolest plants ever…

I can’t believe it was only $17 from Bunnings.

Sometimes Bunnings have pitcher plants too…..
Down side is, they’re both easy to kill 😦

Stu: Well, hopefully the plant I actually bought (a bogonia) will survive. Not much does under my tender care 🙂
