FlytrapCare Carnivorous Plant Forums

My sundew is my new buddy aka... secret weapon! I trapped a fly in my hands by cupping it with my palm on a wall then I brought it to my sundew's terrarium and the fly was pretty angry then it finally got hungry after a day and the next thing I know it is trying to get "unglued" it had stringy glue on its legs when trying to walk but the result! Was a dead fly with its face being palmed by a sundew leaf! Lol I woke up to this, this morning heheheheh what I saw the fly I woke up to dead I didn't see any fly... Weird.... Must of hid from the sundew!

Sometimes the burmanniis grow so fast after eating that a new leaf has covered up the leaf with the prey in it.

Yes I noticed that!

I think it's encased inside that folded leaf.
