Those beautiful, jewel-like droplets aren't water at all. They're sticky traps designed to catch unsuspecting insects!\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eUnlike Venus Flytraps, Sundews don't snap shut. Instead, their leaves produce sticky mucilage that traps small insects, including fungus gnats and fruit flies. Once an insect is caught, the plant slowly digests it to absorb nutrients. Some leaves may even curl around their prey to help with digestion!\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eDrosera spatulata\u003c\/em\u003e is one of the more beginner-friendly Sundews, making it a fantastic introduction to carnivorous plants.
