    Look at what we saw last weekend at a greenhouse. I think something needed to be up potted. What a stuffing thing to see. We marveled at it.

    I don't think I've ever seen a Carnivorous Plant that size before. Hope it sticks to a diet of insects!! ;)

    We keep our plants neat and tidy. This one has gone wild. Much like it would be, 'in the wild'. Very unusual for us to see.

    I would, and am, one that would "divide and give", before it got that big. :D

    I would like my Staghorn Fern to go wild one day.
