Exotic Sarracenia


Day 266: Sarracenia's blossom grows more mysterious daily. In between where the bases of each petal attaches to the central structure, gaps are opening, but there is no evidence to suggest that the "orange" is going to split into a second set of petals. I am wondering if these gaps are another type of trap for the insects this plant consumes. I can say one thing for certain: if Sarracenia was bigger, I'd keep my door locked at night!
