Plant of the Day
Friday 3 February 2023
This bench of carnivorous plants at Duthie Park was grown by the junior members of the Royal Horticultural Society of Aberdeen. These plants grown in acidic conditions and attract, trap and digest animals, mainly insects, for the nutrients they contain. The flowering plant is a Pinguicula species (butterwort) that is an insectivorous perennial producing rosettes of sticky, pale green leaves.

Also I got back into carnivorous plants.
A few of my Nepenthes and my Ping rocks. The flytraps and Sarracenia live outside; I have more Neps downstairs.

The Pinguicula gigantea flowered for the first time!! It’s so cute!
The color kind of thickens at the fringes like watercolor paints.

The small carnivorous plants bog is going really well! 🌿
It has changed a bit since I set it up. In the set-up video, I had put in Empetrum nigrum and Calluna vulgaris. Unfortunately, both plants died after a while and I can't say what caused this.
I then planted the bottom completely with moss and added Utricularia sandersonii and Utricularia livida.
But the Drosera capensis alba in particular, which can be seen at the front right, has grown really big. In the meantime, it has formed some offshoots and is even flowering! 🌼
Materials I used for this:
Similar glass:
