While looking in the HGTV website, I found an interesting article that told a little about a carnivorous orchid with sticky leaves to catch insects. How many of you have heard of it? Can you gather some info on it?
It was believed to have some of the same trapping characteristics as other CPs. However, it was never scientifically confirmed.
If a plant kill insects, it doesn't mean it can absorb the nutrients. Carnivory requires absorption.
