A plant that houses it's own little protective army, isn't evolution amazing.
Now which one came first ants or the plant with ant housing leaves? ;)

I'd love to find a nursery that sells that plant. I can mount it on a trunk wrapped with moss & grow it in my greenhouse. I know Asiatica sells it but it is pricey.
