Carnivorous Sundew Plant - Drosera Spatulata

Sundew are infamous for their ability to trap, kill, and consume insects. When an insect finds its way into their sticky tentacles, the leaf will curl up and allow the plant to digest the live prey. They prefer to trap fruit flies and fungus gnats, but other insects can be consumed too.
