Round the Countryside: Curious Plants
C. C. Gaddum
Mr. Gaddum is going to talk about some curious inhabitants of the plant world. First of all he will deal with the wild arum, cuckoo-pint, or lords-and-ladies. Most people who live in the country are familiar with this pale green flower that appears in the hedgerows in the early spring, but few realise that it has an extremely ingenious way in which it captures its food. Then he will talk about a small, almost insignificant, plant, the sundew, which is to be found on moorland marshes. He will describe the amazing way in which it devours flies and other small insects.
