It鈥檚 that frightfully fun season again at the 91短视频, and so we encourage you to set the tone with plants we鈥檙e certain would be found in the home of any respectable witch or goblin, and are easy to care for, too!
Snap! Watch a Venus flytrap snag its next meal.
Our top choices
are the spider plant (Chlorophytum comosum), snake plant (Dracaena trifasciata), and Shrek鈥檚 ear jade plant (Crassula Ovata 鈥淕ollum鈥 ).
Kalanchoe, also called 鈥渕other of thousands鈥 (Kalanchoe daigremontiana), is a fright to anyone who remembers the 1951 science fiction classic 鈥淒ay of the Triffids鈥 where an alien plant species landed on Earth and took over the planet. This scary plant reproduces by growing baby plants on the edges of its leaves. Warning: do not let hundreds of tiny babies invade your home!
Plants with a taste for flesh? Yes! Carnivorous plants need nutrients from insects and other small animals to thrive. The Venus flytrap, (Dionaea musipula), is well-known for its jaw-like leaves that close on unsuspecting flies. We also love the blood-red coloring on the tropical pitcher plant Nepenthes and the trumpet pitcher plant, Sarracenia.
Remember, beyond the candy and costumes, there are a few flesh-eating, jaw-clamping, spooky fun plants that would welcome an invitation to your Halloween celebration.
