    I just happened to stumble apon this very WILD video. These are truly the most UN-REAL, out of this world plants I have ever seen! I never knew such plants exsisted! Can you imagine having some of these in your living room?

    "These time lapse, sped up videos show how plants move. It looks like they are opening and closing their eyes-- peeping."

    Scroll down a little.....

    Thanks Bluewing very cool, I vaguely remember seeing some of these pics years ago, can't for the life of me remember where though.
    The 'eyes' on the fly trap and the dancing Pachystachys make me wonder if there has been some digital 'enhancing' :}

    It does look very CGI to me, but if it's real, that's really really cool! Thanks for sharing that with us!

    I don't know if some, or even all of the plants were "Enhanced" or not, I didn't even think that might be the case, but it was fun and yet a little weird and spooky watching them move around. I wondered about how long it really took for the plant to complete it's cycle for entire full movement.
