Can anyone tell me what kind of plant this is?

It was taken at the Rome Sand Plains, Rome, New York.Rome Sand Plains is a 15,000-acre inland pine barrens within the city of Rome in Oneida County, New York consisting of a mosaic of high sand dunes and low peat bogs, mixed northern hardwood forests, meadows and wetlands. It is one of only a handful of inland pine barrens remaining in the United States. The sand plains were previously submerged under a glacial lake that covered much of central New York ten thousand years ago.





There are several rare species in the Sand Plains, including the purple pitcher plant and a sundew (both of which are carnivorous plants), red-shouldered hawks and martens and the threatened Frosted Elfin (Incisalia irus). Other species to be found include wild blue lupine, barrens buckmoth (Hemileuca maia), whippoorwill, pine warbler and pitch pine, normally indigenous to coastal areas. The one-mile Wood Creek trail is an interpretive nature trail.

BaTTLE-aTTLE-aTTLE of the cARNIVOROUS-IVOROUS pLANTS-ANTS-ANTS !!?

What if you took a Sundew plant and a Venus Fly Trap and put the parts of the sundew plant that catch insects into the jaws of a fly trap, which one would survive the other's DEADLY DIGESTIVE ENZYMES?

Thank you for your question.





It is unlikely that either would survive if they were digested. However, the triggers are set for insects and they may not trigger the trap. However, neither plant would survive because it would be out of soil and not exposed to light.





I have attached sources for your reference.

Creating a terrarium?

I'm curious about creating a terrarium - one containing primarily plants, with no other organisms such as frogs, etc.





What I'd like to do is try to duplicate an environment from someplace in the world that is quite unique and interesting. I've thought of doing the basic desert, or rainforest, or swamp, but those all seem so typical. I'd like to do a place where there are some plants that make you say "What the hell is that?", and that sort of thing. I've also looked into carnivorous plants, such as venus flytraps, sundews, pitchers, but because of the small space you're pretty well limited to only carnivorous plants, which could get boring too.





Can anyone think of a neat climate or ecosystem that I could create (that's different from what is found in North America), assuming I can precisely control temperature, humidity, lighting, and soil chemistry?

Creating a terrarium?
although i'm not sure how large you want your terrarium to be ...why not try simulating a mossy forest!.
