From Venus flytraps and pitcher plants to a plant that smells like a rotting corpse, these organisms are as diverse as they are weird. Toxic mosses and poisonous plants like the New Zealand tree nettle show that plants can be just as dangerous, and freaky, as anything in the animal kingdom"--Amazon.com.
