The Return of the Carnivorous Plants

At the Conservatory of Flower they have the world's largest Venus flytrap and Asian Pitcher. The Conservatory of Flower has a exhibit called Chomps.

You can see hundreds of carnivorous plants at the Big Bog. The Big Bog is a swampy paradise for the meat-eating plants like a Venus flytrap. Most of the plants lack nutrients because the soil is so poor. At the Conservatory of Flower, they have the Bladderworts, the largest group of plants at the Conservatory of Flower with over 200 species.
