Sundew Drosera is the official name for the sundew, one of the largest genera of carnivorous plants. They are known as sundews because morning dew takes a long time to evaporate fr om them, often leaving them sparkling until the sun is high in the sky. This semi-abstract design is based on a sundew that grows in the Top End of the Northern Territory. These tiny plants lure insects with a sweet sticky substance that traps them. If the insect is unable to free itself quite quickly, the plant closes around the insect – sometimes in a matter of seconds – and dissolves the poor creature with enzymes. It then absorbs the nutrients from the insects through its leaves. All I can say is, thank goodness it’s so small. Show more
