Drosera, commonly known as sundew are larger kinds of carnivorous plants.It is estimated that there is no less of 194 species in existence .Rossolis enjoy wide dissemination and range of rustic varieties found in Alaska South Africa tropical species.
In spite of the large-scale distribution of Drosera and many available species there are some commonalities that help to perpetuate a filamentary factory owner.
Soil - as with all carnivorous plants, the plants have evolved to overcome the difficulties of nutrient poor soils.One should try to reproduce a such sol.Tandis habitats vary, most of the sundew be happier in acid soil like peat. In addition, many sundew come from relatively "wetland" areas such as bog, bog and Marsh. Soil should be chosen which is water.
Water - assuming an acid loving variety of filiform has been selected, one should strive to maintain a constant level of moisture in the soil.In addition, it should avoid the use of water from the tap;rain water represents the best option.Toutefois, rain water is not available then use water deionized water, which is available in many stores maintenance equipment or car.
Food - food is generally not necessary, especially if the plant is kept outdoors in all or part of the year if the choice feeding a sundew, only feed the plant with insects.Meats and other foods fat may kill the specimen.
While there are many varieties of available sundew, the mechanism for capturing insects and digestion is largely semblable.Rossolis grow leaves, which take on a variety of shapes and sizes, long tentacles to small keypad as feuilles.Chacune leaves a large number of present tentacles are covered with a substance tacky mucilage.
Insects are attracted to the leaves by collante.Cependant substance, when landing on leaf insect becomes jump on the sheet.Over a period of time, the tentacles of the plant will be bend towards the centre of the feuille.Ici trapped insect is subsequently was digested with a mixture of the enzyme, which is reabsorbed by the leaves of the plant.
While the filiform misses the tragedy of Dionaea Flytrap, observation of a set of action sundew is always a fascinating experience and provides with the possibility of pushing something a little out of the beaten plant collector.
Overall, the sundew are relatively easy to obtain and retain carnivore.Tant basic rules and procedures are observed plant way, the owner must be able to keep a set of sundew with relatively little effort.
