Galloway Branch of the Atlantic County Library system located at 306 East Jimmie Leeds Road, Galloway, NJ. Doors open at 7:00pm, with the meeting to begin promptly at 7:30pm. The topic:
Carnivorous Plants!
YOU DON'T WANT TO MISS THIS!
Did you know that there are hundreds of species of carnivorous plants that eat insects and other tiny organisms for nutrition? You may have wanted to try growing carnivorous plants but could not find a source. Perhaps you were afraid they might be too difficult.
Come on out to discover facts about these unusual plants. Don’t worry, there won’t be any Seymours- the imaginary man-eaters out of “Little Shop of Horrors.”
Join Josh Alcoba, owner of Jersey Devil Carnivorous Plants as he explores the world of Venus Fly Traps, Sundews, Bladderworts, Butterworts, & Pitcher Plants. He will touch on the history and biology of carnivorous plants from around the globe, the hobby today, plant care, concerns over poaching and endangered species, and conservation efforts. There will also be live demonstrations and plants for sale.
Hosted by the Sandpiper Orchid Society
