Carnivorous Plants – Plants That Bite Back

May 15 @ 10:00 am - 11:00 am

Venus fly trap with open traps

Join Downtown Cary Park Horticulturist and Emmy-award winning naturalist Dr. Patrick McMillan for a fascinating look at plants that have turned the table on animals. The Carolinas are home to more types of carnivorous plants than anywhere in the world. Active snapping traps and debilitating chemicals all play a role in the biology of these bizarre plants and the way they capture their prey. We will be examining living plants up close at the Park.
