LITTLE POT OF HORROR: CARNIVOROUS PLANTS & THEIR DARK APPETITES
with Jonathan Kui is a forensic biologist and owner of Midtown Carnivores
Saturday, October 18th at 11am
Join forensic biologist and carnivorous plant pioneer, Jonathan Kui for a deep dive into the fascinating world of carnivorous plants! In this hands-on workshop, we will explore several different families of carnivorous plants and examine a variety of specimens up close, including venus flytraps, sundews, and pitcher plants. Learn how they grow, how they live, and what they
need to survive and thrive in cultivation. Top off your new appreciation for these unique fora by getting your hands dirty, and potting your very own carnivorous plant seeds to take home.
