1. Features1. Morphological characteristics: The Venus flytrap is an annual herb with a relatively short stem and a low plant height of only about 6-38 cm. The plant has very obvious leaves that are shaped like shells. The inside of the leaves is red and is covered with regular spines that look like teeth. The Venus flytrap can bloom, and the flowering period is every summer. The flowers are umbels and are white in color. It produces obovoid fruits, about 4-6 mm long, containing many tiny seeds. 2. Predation method: The Venus flytrap is a carnivorous plant that can catch insects through its leaves. The edge of the leaves secretes nectar to lure insects to approach. When the insect reaches the leaves, the leaves on both sides will close together, clamping the insect and making it unable to move. Then it secretes mucus to decompose and absorb it, thereby forming nutrients for the plant's growth. 2. Is it harmful to humans?Although the Venus flytrap can prey on insects, it is not poisonous, does not emit harmful odors, and does not damage human health. It is harmless to humans and can be grown indoors to help people catch mosquitoes. Its unique shape also makes it ornamental. |
