When I was at Petco about two weeks ago, there was a large jar of live wingless fruit flies in the reptile food section. I was tempted to buy it to bring home for spring break, but I decided against it.

I'm the grower of VFTs Maria, Lukas, Emil, Mathias, Isabel, Alice, Beatrix, Arthur, Berwald, and a cup of seedlings named Lili.
I also have Francis, my cape sundew.
RIP Gilbert
Yes, I'm the silly person who names her plants.
