Genlisea aurea
Corkscrew Plant
Description
Genlisea aurea, commonly known as the Golden Corkscrew Plant, is a carnivorous plant native to South America. It is characterized by its unique, corkscrew-shaped underground traps that capture microorganisms. The plant produces small, yellow flowers on a slender stalk. It thrives in acidic, nutrient-poor soil and full sun or bright, indirect light. It needs a moist environment. It is a good choice for terrariums or specialized carnivorous plant collections. Use rainwater or distilled water to keep the soil moist. It can be a delicate plant to cultivate, but is a great look.
