I have heard they are bright and attractive as it helps to attract insects. Haven’t had an occasion to see a real one. Am glad that you enjoyed my writing. Thank you so much. 😊 🙏
Lady slippers (flowers), most orchids I believe had that ability’s to trap small insects.
“Orchids do not attract ants. They specialize in attracting specific species of bees, moths, butterflies, humming birds…but not ants. What attracts the ants into your potting medium is that the other pests who produce a sugary sap have probably already infested the pot.”
I like that very much! “Blooming carnivore” is not how I usually think of them. We did have a Venus flytrap that actually bloomed. Very pretty.
