Meat Lily

Appearance
The Meat Lily has a main stalk with almost bamboo-like strength which intertwines. At the top of the stalk lays a "pitcher" basin which is covered by a "lily". The Meat Lily is a mostly green plant, with a red-pink color near the top of the pitcher basin. The Meat Lily has short roots in the ground.

Life Cycle
The Meat lily is a flowering plant with seeds contained in a fruit which blooms in Spring. The Meat Lily reaches adult size after roughly 3 months. The Meat Lily eats by luring in small mammals using scent. Once the animal reaches the top Lily, the leaf closes under the mammal's weight and traps them in the pitcher basin to be digested by acids similar to human stomach-acid. Meat Lilies are not a threat to humans.
