[[Image:Beauregard.jpg|thumb|Beauregard]]A '''weeper''' is an animate, carnivorous [[plant]].
One weeper plant was "[[Beauregard]]" (also known as "Gertrude") that was kept aboard the [[botany|botanical]] section of the [[USS Enterprise (NCC-1701)|''Enterprise'']] by [[Lieutenant]] [[Hikaru Sulu]]. It was a tall (3-foot) hollow rooted tube, from which pink flower petals could extend and retract like a grasping hand. The plant would purr in the presence of those it liked, but was capable of shrill, high-pitched cries when frightened. ({{TOS|The Man Trap}})
