Drosera
Sunflower (Drosera) is a genus of carnivorous plants in the Sunflower family (Droseraceae). The botanical name Drosera is derived from the ancient Greek δρόσος (drosos) = dew. The sundew lures, catches and digests insects through a glistening sticky substance on its tentacles. The prey serves to provide the plant with nutrients that are virtually absent in the soil where the plants live. Most sun dying lives in swampy areas, but there are exceptions in extremely dry areas.
