Florida’s Carnivorous Plants

December 10, 2022 @ 10:30 am - 12:00 pm
Free
  • « HUKYU BONSAI SOCIETY MEETING
  • Holiday Community Concert »

Learn about Florida’s amazing carnivorous plants!

Learn about Florida’s endemic carnivorous plants! Florida has dozens of native species of carnivorous plants––more than any other state in the United States—including sundews, butterworts, bladderworts, and pitcher plants. These plants use appealing scents, leaves, and sticky fluids to trap and imprison insects. Digestive fluids then absorb the prey giving the plant its nutrients. Learn the evolution, people, and natural history of this area to discover why Florida is a hotspot of carnivorous plants.

 

Presented by Kenny Coogan, author of the new book “Florida’s Carnivorous Plants”.

Kenny’s book “Florida’s Carnivorous Plants” and a selection of carnivorous plants will be available for purchase after the talk!
