Flowers from the Pale Rainbow Sundew (Drosera Pallida)

A beautiful shot of Drosera Pallida flowers. Drosera Pallida is a fascinating climbing sundew. Like all sundews it is a carnivorous plant that lures it's prey in by sweet smelling leaves that are coated in a sticky secretion. However this particular species of Drosera uses its sticky pad-like leaves to climb higher in the foliage. Its flowers are held far above the bud-luring leaves to avoid pollinating insects becoming ensnared by the plant.
