Description: | This small plant is found in damp, marshy places. It often grows on very nutrient poor soils, such as bogs in upland areas. It supplements its supply of nutrients by catching insects. The rosette of small yellowish leaves at the base of the plant are covered with sticky glands that trap and digest small beetles and flies. It produces a single purple flower that grows on a long stem at the centre of the rosette of leaves. | Source: | Tyne & Wear Archives & Museums | Identifier: | emu.ecatalogue.botany.161604 | Go to resource |
