Small Butterwort
Pinguicula pumila
28.4828, -81.1263
Field Notes
Description:
Carnivorous plant that traps prey in its leaves with sticky glands and eventually digests them. I have seen these at this location before, so I was hoping to see them again when they were in bloom. Unfortunately, I did not find any flowers that were fully open, but they are still amazing plants nonetheless.
Habitat:
Moist, grassy area near pine and saw palmetto habitat. Many of the butterworts I saw were growing right next to the trail. Hal Scott Regional Preserve and Park
