I want a few more plants. The problem with the plants I want is that
they probably don't exist, but I'll never know if I don't ask so
here's what I'm looking for:

1. A temperate, aquatic Utric with the following characteristics:

Has traps big enough to eat mosquito larvae.

Doesn't mind either being frozen solid or kept in the dark during the Winter.

Can live in 10-gallon trash can with water levels generally between
3-7 gallons, occasionally going to the top, or in a 5-gallon
punchbowl.

2. A temperate Ping that can take hot Summers & cold Winters (USDA
Zone 7, Brooklyn, NY) and can take shipment while growing. I'll
probably get, umm, the one Andrew Marshall mentioned to me in the
email that's on my work computer, but I'd get a different one now as
well if I could.

3. *ANYTHING* easy & temperate that can eat palmetto bugs, preferably
something that can take low light as well. I don't know why there are
suddenly palmetto bugs running around here: I'm in #$%^&*@ Brooklyn,
a thousand miles from the nearest palmetto, but I was born in Florida
& I know a palmetto bug when I see it.

Thanks,
-Kit
