The New England Carnivorous Plant Society Carnivorous Plant Show is spectacular! When it moved to Tower Hill, I think it really took off! I went to the ICPS Conference in 2016 and saw a lot of neat plants. But facts are facts, the plants displayed at the ICPS 2016 did not come close to the plants that are displayed at the NECPS shows. 2017 was no different.
There are multiple pictures of some of the same plants. Different angles and so forth.
First you can't appreciate a good show without a meal:
Then I went partying at the local country dance club. 3rd year in a row. No picture evidence available hehehe. To protect the innocent... me.
The next day the show!

I'm no professional photographer.
The colors! The variety! Although some pictures of plants are repeats, there were hundreds of plants on display. I've not seen this many carnivorous plants, with such variety, ever. Maybe the ICPS meeting in the US this year will have better. If that is the case, it will be an astounding show!
Hope you enjoyed this type of post. All pictures and no sciency stuff.
Thanks for reading!
Comment if you would like!
Have a Great day!
