Spurred Flower - Pinguicula caerulea
Description:
Jonathan Dickinson State Park Hobe Sound Martin County Fl Member of the Butterworts. These plants insectivorous as well as gaining nutrients from the soil. Information about them can be found at www.botany.org/Carnivorous_Plants/Pinguicula.php.I included a picture of the leaf structure because they have hairs that secret sticky mucilage that capture and digest insects.
