Carnivorous plants are enjoying unprecedented popularity today. Their popularity stems from the realization that they are relatively easy to grow combined with the mystique that surrounds "man-eating plants." Carnivorous plants are immortalized in Saturday morning cartoons, comic books, the late, late shows and monster movies.
