Aldrovanda vesiculosa

Dionaea muscipula is a perennial plant that remains green year-round and thrives on a diet of insects. It features rosettes of leaves that can expand up to 30 cm in diameter. Each rosette consists of six or more leaves, each with a flat green petiole that culminates in a trap that measures around 2 cm wide. The interior of the trap can display a pink or red hue and is bordered by rigid bristles that mesh together when the trap snaps shut. During the summer months, it produces clusters of small white flowers that rise above the foliage.

Dionaea is a genus of carnivorous plants commonly referred to as Venus Flytrap. These plants capture insects and arachnids using small hairs located on the inner surfaces of their leaves.
