Our next stop was the carnivorous plant bog. (Heinrich had to get back to his business so I took a break from working in the greenhouse to show Lingernot the rest of the garden and introduce him around.)
Lingernot was fascinated by these plants but took a lot encouragement before he approached them. For some reason, he thought they might try to eat him! How old is this gnome? I didn't think I needed to explain to him that these plants eat bugs, not gnomes. Apparently I was wrong. Is he particularly young? I wanted to ask his age but didn't want to insult him.
