A seal to stop odour? They absolutely reek when they've caught a slug!

It's bad enough when the flies start to break down in the other species. There is a rather unpleasant odour in my greenhouse at the moment and for once it's not the Dracunculus or Amorphophallus that's responsible :laugh:

It also implies they can be planted out in the garden. This slug eating nonsense was started by some or other charlatan a number of years back and some outlets are still using it.

'FRANKly', I'm a little surprised the source of such 'marketing' spiel hasn't been slapped on the wrist by now by a body such as Trading Standards for using these kind of claims on labels &  point-of-sale material. It's misleading & misrepresentation but has been going on for years, unfortunately!

I've edited the "sensitive fields", but here is a copy of the response I got. The link  Ms Messervy is referring to is a link to this thread!

Dear Gardening Direct, 

What is stated about your carnivorous plants is mostly nonsense. Are you willing to amend the information? 

Kind regards,

I dont think agreed to do anything did they?  That message is equivalent to saying "ive just dropped your letter in the one day file and  its the last either you or i will hear about it", lol.
