Round-leaved Sundew

Round-leaved Sundew

Round-leaved Sundew Drosera rotundifolia traps small insects that land on its leaves. The leaf surface is covered with red glandular hairs that secrete a sticky substance. Sundew grows in boggy areas where conditions are acid and nitrates are low. This little plant has white or pinkish flowers growing on one side of a curving stalk and the flowers open one at a time.
