Well as you might have read a few months ago I got given a Venus Fly Trap that was the coolest house warming present ever. It’s a flower that eats things, how could it not be awesome? However unbeknown to me Fly Traps do actually flower but it is not something you want to let happen because unless you are a pro (or in my case if you even know how to water a plant) it is very hard to keep a flowering Fly Trap alive, The traps will die and you get a small pretty rubbish flower for a few weeks before it starts all over again.
Sadly however because I am a bit of a noob when it comes to keeping things alive, I figured out it was flowering too late to stop it and now I’m left with a completely dead plant that just looks like some dried up mud in a pot right now. It is not all bad news however because I had another party at my house this weekend and I got given a few flowers as a present, it did show up a bit of a problem though in that I realised I did not own any kind of vase… Big Spaghetti holder it is then!
So now I feel like I need to buy a vase but for me to warrant spending my hard earned on one I’m going to need to keep a fresh supply of nice flowers coming into my house at all times. Being poor but such an amazingly good looking chap I think that people will obviously send flowers to me quite often (…my mum) but if they don’t I’m sure the neighbours will have something nice that they won’t notice is missing.*
*Don’t steal flowers, it is a dastardly thing to do!
