Traps that snap shut, some which close in one-hundredth of a second, drugged nectar and leaves that act like fly paper, discover the fascinating the world of plants that trap and eat prey. The session will highlight the evolution of carnivorous plants, as well as how plants catch their prey. Learn how to grow Venus fly traps, sundews and trumpet pitchers at home.

Everybody welcome; all you need is an interest in plants and gardening. Some of the session will be outdoors in the gardens (weather permitting) so please come dressed in suitable clothing and footwear.
