Rapunzel type tower situation but the tower is a giant mimic and hunts in the way a pitcher plant does. Yes, fair knight. Climb up this conveniently long hair, follow the sweet smell, pull yourself up and over the window sill and fall in to the far below.

This is so cool.

Tell me you've never wanted a molting cicada plushie. It's got iridescent wings. LOOK AT IT.

Also got a pitcher plant backpack...with a doomed caterpillar. Sorely tempted.

(he also makes glow in the dark plants) (and breeds monstera) (and has a free downloadable guide to plant breeding for cool characteristics)

anyway support independent artists or something? that make cool things?

Bornean Chorus Frog – Life in the Pitcher

The dark, wet rainforests of Borneo provide the perfect habitat for amphibians. The problem for an amphibian fanatic and photographer like me is finding them in these huge, dense jungles. The search becomes even more difficult when the frog that you are looking for is one of the smallest frogs on the planet – The Bornean Chorus Frog (Microhyla nepenthicola), or Bornean Narrow-mouthed Frog. While this species of chorus frog is attractive, if you like that sort of thing, you might wonder why I had a particular interest in seeing it. What is special about a little brown frog? Well, this little brown frog has a secret lifestyle. If you are going to be tiny, soft and potentially a tasty meal for just about everything in the jungle then you had better have some tricks to keep your species alive. Nepenthicola’s trick is its breeding habit. Rather than risking the hazards of the big pond, nepenthicola has learned to utilize the tiny pools that form in a pitcher plant with which it shares its name – Flask-shaped Pitcher Plant (Nepenthes ampullaria)...

Carnivorous plants! Not quite as ferocious as you may have seen them depicted in fiction, but still very cool. There are numerous different species of carnivorous plants, and several different mechanisms for trapping and consuming prey. Many are at risk (such as the green pitcher plant depicted on the left and the Venus flytrap on the right, considered critically endangered and vulnerable by the IUCN respectively) due to threats including habitat loss, poaching, invasive species, and pollution.

The Botanical Bestiary is a project I had the honor of being the artist for. It's a bunch of leshy miscreants who will try to destroy you, or possibly be adopted into your party as family. It's a bit of a toss up

The Botanical Bestiary is for Pathfinder 2e and D&D 5e. It contains: 

65 leshy monsters

10 leshy heritages  You can find it on DriveThruRPG here

Nepenthes ovata is an endemic pitcher plant that occurs in the high mountains around Lake Toba, North Sumatra, at 1700-2100m. I love how they bury their lower pitchers in the mosses, and the upper pitchers differ in colour (green) and shape. 卵形猪笼草

Plant of the Day

Wednesday 24 January 2024

A popular insectivorous perennial hybrid, Sarracenia x stevensii (pitcher plant) has tall, slender, reddish-pink pitchers. These plants need a bright light in a frost free position with a moist but well–drained, acidic growing medium.
