			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><strong>Our plant department is excited to let everyone know we have both Venus Flytrap and Ocotpus Plants available. </strong></p>
<p><strong>These carnivorous plants are quite amazing in that they actually feed themselves. The Venus Flytrap snaps itself on its prey and the Octopus Plant surrounds its prey with its &#8216;tentacles&#8217;. </strong></p>
<p><strong>Most of our requests for these plants come from young boys . . . or from their Mothers! They&#8217;re great fun and educational. Come in and have a look for yourself. </strong></p>
