Ok so, I think I’m pushing the scary-seed theme a bit beyond it’s ability to terrify, so this will be the last post on the subject until either a Triffid flower forms or it starts releasing toxic gas and I find lots of dead flies scattered around it.
For anyone who missed the hooha, here are my previous blogs on the subject:
- July 28th first post about seeds
- Aug 3rd turns out my boss got the seeds too, and they’re peas!
- Aug 18th new information about seeds
Ahem. So the photo above shows the seedlings poking up from the mysterious Chinese seeds that I received. They look pretty much like normal seedlings. Those are just the seed leaves poking up, so I’ll have to wait a bit to see the true leaves and maybe work out what they are. No dead flies yet.
End of update! 🙂

Maybe it’s a Venus Fly Trap. I have always wanted one of those. I would call it Trevor…

I would call it Bruno after the great scientist who was hung…or crucified…or burnt for his theory about Earth revolving around Sun. He wasn’t in biology but my knowledge of scientific genius is rather limited.

Hey Petra, do you mind us calling the ‘evil seedling’ as Bruno Copernicus Jacob? He is your baby afterall!

Fabulous! Copernicus really needs to take off as a name 🙂

Only a true gardener could make these mystery seeds grow. There should be a news conference, but the grower would be arrested for planting them. Sounds like a no-win situation.

It is a bigger problem if you aren’t finding flies around it. The Life of Pi had plant that ate animals with muscle and bone. i say check between leaves for remaining teeth…seems like they are hardest to digest.
