| Pinguicula gigantea (Flypaper plant) |
The flypaper plant, a native of Mexico, is literally like a living flypaper. Its leaves excrete a sticky compound which traps and immobilizes small insects. Once trapped by this carnivorous plant, the unfortunate insects are digested and absorbed by the leaves, providing the plant with needed nutrition.
Cool... where can I buy some?
