Some of my Stylidium debile

[SirKristoff]

i got a few from Xantius back around the beginning of May and since then they have exploded...they definitely loved my windowsill and now they seem to really love my greenhouse.
i have a few sprouting from root divisions out in direct sun too.

 

[Capensis]

Neat. They sort of look like Mexican pings in their winter leaves.

Gee I wish I was in US right now so I could take some Nice plants SK!

 

[theyellowdart]

Very nice.
So which part about these is carnivorous again? The flower stalks or something?

 

[Halt]

I believe the flowers get triggeredd.

 

[SirKristoff]

there are sticky glands on the base of the flower where the seed pod forms that are similar to that on a drosera or pinguicula that are able to catch and digest small insects like gnats or springtails.
Halt, the trigger/hammer is only to transfer pollen
when an insect stimulates the flower, it swings forward and smacks the insect dusting it in pollen, resets itself in a few minutes, then cant be used again for a few hours.
