NOTES: |
A shrub that functions as living flypaper. Bladderworts with trap doors that snap shut in one-thousandth of a second. Pitcher plants that lure flies and wasps into fields of nectar. This scientific journey through the realm of plants that survive by eating flesh takes you from Asia to the United States. Rare closeups show you how the Venus's flytrap cathes the sudden growth that follows a good meal. How did these fiedish masterpieces of deception evolve from simple leaves? A detailed commentary guides you through the inner workings of creations that conceal a deadly purpose behind innocent facades. |
