Long-Lasting Carnivorous Plants Live – Darlingtonia Californica, Cobra Orchid.

Description: The California Pitcher Plant (Darlingtonia californica) is a carnivorous, herbaceous perennial plant native to the coastal bogs and mountain streams of the west coast of Oregon and California. It is the only species in the genus Darlingtonia. The plant has large, tubular leaves that trap water and insects. The leaves are green and translucent, with a hood and appendages that resemble a cobra's head. The nectar secreted by the hood and appendages attracts insects, which are then trapped inside the leaf. The insects are unable to escape due to the slippery walls of the leaf and the downward-pointing hairs. They eventually die and are decomposed by microorganisms in the fluid at the bottom of the leaf. The nutrients released by the decomposition are absorbed by the plant. The California Pitcher Plant is a difficult plant to grow outside of its native range. It requires cool temperatures, high humidity, and wet, bog-like conditions. It is currently threatened by habitat disruption and unscrupulous collectors. The California Pitcher Plant is a fascinating and unique plant. It is a testament to the resilience of nature that this plant has been able to survive in its harsh environment for millions of years.
