Description
Embark on a thrilling botanical adventure by growing your very own Sundew – a remarkable "flypaper" plant and one of the largest groups of carnivorous flora. Sundews possess an extraordinary trapping mechanism, featuring long tentacles extending from their leaves, each adorned with a sticky gland at the tip. These glistening droplets resemble dew in the sunlight, inspiring the plant's name.
These ingenious glands serve multiple purposes: they produce sweet nectar to lure unsuspecting prey, a powerful adhesive to immobilise the insect, and potent enzymes to digest the captured meal. When an insect becomes entrapped, the surrounding tentacles coil around the victim, enveloping it in a smothering embrace.
This set includes everything you need to grow your own carnivorous plant. Compressed soil, bamboo pot, care instructions and a fresh packet of seeds! It is seriously the perfect gift for anyone with a little bit of a green thumb, teens, boys, girls, dads, mums & aunts and uncles, who would not want one!
Embark on this fascinating horticultural journey and witness the captivating world of carnivorous plants right in your own home!
