Plant InformationFly TrapsThe famous Venus Fly Trap, a native of coastal North and South Carolina, forms a hinged trap that typically has three little triggers on the inside of each half. When an insect touches one of the triggers, the plant gets ready to spring into action. When the same or another one is touched, the trap quickly slams shut. Digestive enzymes secreted by glands within the trap decompose the insect’s body. The trap will open again in a week or two to capture another meal. SundewsSundews produce leaves with tentacles that produce a very sticky glue-like substance. They glisten in sunlight and are called “The Jewels of the Plant World.” Insects are attracted to the tentacles and quickly become stuck. Adjoining tentacles bend and attach to the body of the unlucky bug. Digestive enzymes eventually absorb the nutrients from the insect, thus nourishing the plant. These plants developed this ability to cope with the nutrient poor environment they are native too. As a result of this, it is important to only water them with distilled or collected rain water and to not apply fertilizer to them. Flytraps are perennials that can live for decades and their traps increase in size each year, when they return after a rather brief cold period.
