Have you read The Halfling’s Gem from forgotten realms? There isn’t an exact sundew but something heavily inspired by them, to the point where it shares its name.
I have a Cape sundew. They need extra light during the dark months to produce their dew and grow. Mine isn't strong enough to catch prey on its own so I feed it with weak flies. It's so cute to see it embrace its prey.
It would take a very long time! Most sundew species are tiny, so you’d get an almost imperceptible amount of nectar. It’s also pretty sticky and viscous, so it wouldn’t be easy to collect.
That's the thing that make me hate vegans. We, humans are actually hypocarnivorous species, meaning that we DO need to eat a little of meat, much like a bear will eat evrything thet it can get his snout on
@@Flugs0 Unfortunately, yes. Look up "extreme vegans" or "are humans frugivores" or something like that and you should find at _least_ one, and likely two or three, if not MANY more people trying to argue that.
I'm loving these plant videos! One thing I've never really understood very well about some species of plants in Australia is how they can only germinate once there has been a fire.
looks like im a little late, but the explanation for that is that the species that exist in ecosystems with regular fire will adapt. most of the seeds have a protective coating that must be removed by fire, or chemical detectors that detect when chemicals from smoke have leached into the soil.
I have seen these grow in the pacific north west. There's a lake in Oregon with a giant log sticking out of the water and on top of said log is a bunch of sundew and it's the only carnivores plant I've seen grow wild in Pacific northwest.
As far as the evolutionary aspect, how the hell did any plant figure out there was flying inspects when they can't see, that freaks me out the most. Makes me think one day trees will try to eat us
If you think of it like that, it is scary; however, it is completely possible - similar to how plants know they need insects to get pollinated. Some plant species have hairs or trichomes that are used against defense from pests. At some point, some species with stickier trichomes or ones that can absorb some nitrogen from the insects that came to them fared better off in lower nutrient environments. Eventually these plants put more skill points into developing stickier hairs to capture more prey and increase the amount of nitrogen they can absorb.
They aren't evolved to catch flying creatures (in this case flying insects) They just evolving to catch their preys that's stupid enough to get to their sweet
One day I would like to see you do an episode on Triops and fairy shrimp. As a child I lived in the Texas panhandle and being a kid I found in tire ruts after a rain these little creatures swimming in the water, I thought they were so cool!
That was amazing, thanks! We have sundews here in Southern England too, I find them in boggy parts of the New Forest, especially where sphagnum moss grows.
This was great and super interesting. I love this addition to Animal logic. Please do some episodes on mushrooms. They are fascinating. Maybe do the honey mushroom or the death cap mushroom. 🍄🍄🍄
I just saw this video in my recommended then I'm like, look in the comments and find the people who talk about wings of fire and also the poison jungle is the best
@@magenta2787 I hate to be 'that guy' but whilst instrumental in Hawthorn's defeat, the sundew actually killed the Dragonbite Viper coiled around Willow's neck.
All I can think of is: "WE REQUIRE MORE MINERALS.." as you're taking care of these plants.. 🤔😂🤣😂 For those who don't know what I'm referencing to, it's a computer game created by Blizzard Entertainment called "StarCraft."
Is this a new series? I must have missed the introduction. I love plants! They definitely seem undercovered in nature and science media. Looking forward to future episodes!
We have little ones growing in peat bogs in the Scottish highlands and Hebrides. You just find these patches of fluffy pink, sticky, impossibly tiny and cute looking sundews.
My favorite carnivorous plant...I have one of my own, Cape Sundew takes little effort to grow. Just strong light and pure water and you're fine. Only thing that bugs me is that it's reaction is random and I keep missing the quick movements. lol Whenever I tried recording it, it goes camera shy and leaves don't move at all when I give it food, it's stubborn. lol
Could you cover mosses/ a family of mosses? They reproduce so differently from vascular plants and can revive after years of dessication. I love the new series, thank you!
Could you do an episode on the tumble weed and how its actually an invasive species of plant that the U.S. government has spent billions to try and clean up for the sake of the farming community??????????
Great content ladies, have you ever considered making a video about Fungi Kingdom? Or maybe even the animal/plant super kingdom that existed precambrian?
Ah yes, that lovely moment when I woke up and checking my garden, wondering what kind of insect met their end sticking in my sundew. Usually ants or mosquitoes, sometimes flies, and, just once, ........ A small moth. Ah... Beautiful.
there was a video where someone said that they thought brambles were also carnivorous because they can snare sheep and the sheep can't move therefore dying and putting nutrients into the soil for the plant to suck up.
Brambles are more pseudo-carnivorous, They don't actively digest their 'prey' and instead rely on other organisms to break it down so they can absorb the neutriance.
I'm surprised these plants haven't been featured more often in fiction. They'd be right at home in the Forgotten Realms or similar settings.
I see I'm not the only one alredy thinking about adding the Giant Sundew to my DnD campaign
I think there was a Giant Sundew in one of the Slaver Lord modules for 1st Ed.
Have you read The Halfling’s Gem from forgotten realms? There isn’t an exact sundew but something heavily inspired by them, to the point where it shares its name.
They actually ARE in Forgotten Realms - Drizz't has a run in with a massive one in a sewer, I think.
@@iamfenrir5386 Kind of. That was a sort of ooze inspired and named after these, I think, and not an actual one, right?

What is the lake called?
We also have pitcher plants in coastal bog areas in Oregon
@@lanewallick5490 Do we really?
Easy to grow.. NEED rain water.. DON'T use tap water - it kills them!!!!.. OK?
@@birchtree334 It’s called the Darlingtonia or Cobra lily pitcher. It grows in bogs in southern Oregon and Northern California.
When I first heard "Sundew," I thought Sunny D and I was I was expecting a bright yellow-orange daisy, not an insect serial killer.

I prefer the term anti-pest guard. They save crops from having to use pesticides, so these are pretty helpful.

I can't hear about sundews without thinking of Zefrank's pronunciation.
Wonderful episode.
These seem perfect to have around a garden. Helps keep away to many pesky insects that would harm rather than help.
Lets talk about the largest living organisms the humungous fungus or the Quaking Aspen
I second this motion!
I third this!! Do one for Pando!!!
Great idea

Damn, Sundew really let herself go
Props if you get the reference
Edit: a word
The outro was life! "Tell me about a sundont" thank u for a pleasant end to the week
I thought Sundews had powerful leafspeak, mommy issues, a hatred for HiveWings and an amazing girlfriend.
Nah, you're thinking of SNUDOO
CAN I DELIVER US A RIVER OF SUNDEWWW
CAREFUL ITS CARNIVOROUS A LITTLE JUST WONT DOOOO
every time i hear sundew i think about wing of fire

What’s it called?
POV: you're an insect and you found a sundew
*DED*
When I went to Newfoundland I saw these plants everywhere! It was honestly pretty surprising. I had always associated them with a warmer climate.
A sundew randomly appeared in my back yard this summer and I love it!
Glad you keep relatively the same formula for this series, it's very entertaining.
Now that's a REAL sticky situation
Pun definitely intended
