Comments about VENUS FLY TRAP GARDEN STAKE:

My kid wanted a Venus fly trap plant, but I knew she would be disappointed with a real one (they don't snap shut in real life, just in the cartoons). This piece is funny and cute, and the dragonfly is a magnet that can be moved to different places on the piece. I like that it incorporates recycled/reused materials. It's kind of a drag that it rusts, though. We don't like her to touch it now that it is rusty, for obvious reasons.
