The Scorpion Flower


---The Scorpion Flower is a carnivorous plant from an alternate future that shall thankfully never come to pass. This clever botanical lifeform lures insects to its petals by dripping “nectar venom” from the “stinger petal” arched over the flower. Then, when a curious arthropod investigates the source of the scent… the Scorpion Flower strikes with its “stinger-petal”! Injected with a paralyzing toxin, the plant’s prey falls into the pool of “nectar venom” that collects between the petals. Dissolved by the fluid, the prey is digested by The Scorpion Flower and leaves no trace to forewarn other unsuspecting bugs!
