The Flowers

The plant in this picture is Drosera,,or better known as sundew, a type of carnivorous plant.,The leaves are long and slender,,covered by fine red hairs whose ends secrete a sticky liquid like dew.,This liquid is actually a sticky sap that serves to trap small insects.,When the insect attaches,,the hairs on the leaf will slowly fold and wrap around its prey.,This process helps the plant obtain additional nutrients such as nitrogen,,which is difficult to obtain from the nutrient-poor soils in which it grows -,usually in swamps,,peat, or acidic soils.,The beauty of Drosera lies in the sparkle,of its sticky droplets that look,like jewels when exposed to light,,whereas it is a deadly weapon for insects..
