as a zombie plant is an extremely rare plant.
It is a remarkably easy plant to grow and honestly has very few
requirements to survive. It can be
placed in full sun or shade. It will
even survive in complete darkness – although it may growl if it gets restless.
(Warning: this growling sound can be very unsettling.) If you do not have a green thumb, this is the
plant for you. It is nearly impossible
to kill this plant. (Although over pruning – especially the flowering head will
cause the plant to die.) DO NOT
PRUNE! This plant requires no water or
plant food, but it is always hungry and may take a bite out of you if you get
too close. CAUTION: The <i>Dreadful
Undeadlium </i>is poisonous – one bite will prove to be fatal. <o:p></o:p></span></span></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

I am decorating for Halloween of course.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">I did another zombie doll swap this past month. I will try to post pictures of that.
