Great Sundew at Amor Lake

These great sundew leaves are waiting for unsespecting insects to land and get stuck on the sticky drops of gel at the tips of their soft bristle.


Although they are called "great", most of the great sundew plants are only two to three inches high.


Please be mindful of those tiny jewels as you stroll along the shores of our Vancouver Island lakes. Sundews may be carnivorous, but they are fragile.
