@RinnyK Thank you :-) I don’t have too many little animals in clay, but I certainly like the clay ones even more than the plastic ones. Although… I can’t resist playmobil…
Eric, how is your plant different from a Queen of the Night or Dutchman's Pipe? It looks so much like mine.
@sarahsalith I am not sure about the β€œQueen of the Night” that might be another name for a night blooming cereus. Regarding β€œDutchman’s Pipe” we actually have them wild in the woods here of NC, you may as well where you live. And the wild Dutchman’s Pipe has a heart shaped rather large leaf and a perfect little greenish red/brown pipe for a flower. That looks like it has formed for attracting flies: https://plants.ces.ncsu.edu/plants/aristolochia-macrophylla/ like a pitcher plant.
Well, because of your post, I'm changing my plant name. (: Thanks for the education!
