drosera

🗣️

DEFINITION

a genus of carnivorous plants known as sundews that trap insects with glandular hairs

EXAMPLE SENTENCES

The drosera plant attracts unsuspecting flying insects using shiny, sticky droplets on its leaves. Botanists observed how the tentacles of the drosera curl slowly around trapped prey. Growing drosera in a home terrarium requires nutrient poor, acidic soil and high atmospheric humidity. Wild drosera species inhabit nutrient deficient bog environments across many parts of the world. She photographed a blooming drosera capturing a tiny fly in its sticky natural trap today.
