Appearance: Sundews are small, carnivorous plants with sticky, glandular hairs all over their leaves. These hairs produce a sticky substance that traps insects. The leaves are typically a bright green color, but some species can have red or purple leaves.
Habitat: Sundews are found in a variety of habitats, including bogs, swamps, and heaths. They thrive in wet, acidic soils that are low in nutrients.
Uses: Sundews can be used as ornamental plants, for scientific research, or to control insect populations. They are also carnivorous plants, meaning that they obtain most of their nutrients from trapping and digesting insects.
