We have had a decent crop of Venus Flytraps this year. #plants #carnivorousplants #SavageGarden #botany #nature #naturephotography #biodiversity #photography #biology #ecology #venusflytrap

Found this pitcher plant at the nursery the other day. It’s in a six inch pot. It’s freaking enormous. Tag says sarracenia purpurea but that seems unlikely given that it’s green with veins (like the hulk). It could eat frogs. THE LIP. What did they feed this thing… #SavageGarden #CarnivorousPlants

More Round-leaved Sundews, Drosera rotundifolia. Studies have shown that extracts of this plant have strong anti-inflammatory properties. This and other species of temperate carnivorous plants stop growing during the winter and enter a period of dormancy until the following spring, when they resume growth. #carnivorousplants #biodiversity #biology #nature #plants #botany #SavageGarden

So, why do Venus flytraps need to eat? Someone asked me this, after seeing a page of the zine. Turns out that even though my project isn't finished, that question has been answered :). It's just that a ton of more fascinating stuff is coming. #sciArt #carnivorousPlants #zine #venusFlytrap #humanMadeArt

A few days ago, on a walk in South India, a close friend & awesome naturalist, casually pointed out 2 species of carnivorous plants, Sundews Drosera indica (Indian Sundew) , & D burmanii (Tropical sundew) For me, this was a big natural history moment, my first ever look at wild carnivorous plants. Just so awesome & beautiful https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Drosera_indica & https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Drosera_burmanni #carnivorousplants #IndiasNature #botany #plants #evolution #naturewalks #drosera #droseraindica #droseraburmanii

Many #butterwort species from Mexico have two growth phases. When the weather is dry, they form a tight rosette of succulent leaves. When seasonal moisture arrives, they transition into their carnivorous phase, sporting larger mucilage-covered leaves that catch small insects. #WorldCarnivorousPlantDay #CarnivorousPlantDay2026 #Butterwort #Lentibulariaceae #CarnivorousPlants #gardening
