== Summary ==
[[Second Doctor|The Doctor]] takes [[Jamie McCrimmon|Jamie]] and [[Zoe Heriot|Zoe]] to visit an old friend of his, [[Doctor Vane]], in the [[Experimental Botanical Gardens]] on [[Venus]]. However, when they arrive, he asks Zoe to stay in [[The Doctor's TARDIS|the TARDIS]] while he and Jamie go. Something strange has been happening, which is why they are really there. A few days earlier, Doctor Vane had found his laboratory wrecked and his prized Galea Tentipocus plant missing. He tells this story to the Doctor and Jamie. He has sent his assistant, [[Regan (The Vampire Plants)|Regan]], after the thieves, but he finds a strange sentient plant at the end of the trail that attacks him. Hearing his cry, the Doctor and Jamie rush to the scene, then head off after the plant, which has grown to gigantic proportions and threatens to engulf everything. As the plant prepares to attack them, the Doctor sets fire to it with his lighter. The menace is ended.
