Pinguicula moranensis /pɪŋˈɡwɪkjʊlə ˌmɒrəˈnɛnsɪs/ is a perennial rosette-forming insectivorous herb native to Mexico and Guatemala. A species of butterwort, it forms summer rosettes of flat, succulent leaves up to 10 cm long, which are covered in mucilaginous (sticky) glands that attract, trap, and digest arthropod prey. Nutrients derived from the prey are used to supplement the nutrient-poor substrate that the plant grows in. In the winter the plant forms a non-carnivorous rosette of small, fleshy leaves that conserves energy while food and moisture supplies are low. Single pink, purple, or violet flowers appear twice a year on upright stalks up to 25 cm long. The species was first collected by Humboldt and Bonpland on the outskirts of Mina de Morán in the Sierra de Pachuca of the modern-day Mexican state of Hidalgo on their Latin American expedition of 1799–1804. Based on these collections, Humboldt, Bonpland and Carl Sigismund Kunth described this species in Nova Genera et Species Plantarum in 1817. The extremely variable species has been redefined at least twice since, while several new species have been segregated from it based on various geographical or morphological distinctions, although the legitimacy of some of these is still debated. P. moranensis remains the most common and most widely distributed member of the Section Orcheosanthus. It has long been cultivated for its carnivorous nature and attractive flowers, and is one of the most common butterworts in cultivation. The generic name Pinguicula is derived from the Latin pinguis (meaning "fat") due to the buttery texture of the surface of the carnivorous leaves. The specific epithet moranensis refers to its type location, Mina de Moran.

Beanweed, scientifically known as Pinguicula vulgaris, is native to most countries in Europe, the United States, Canada and Russia. The carnivorous plant has a purple flower and grows in damp habitats.

Large-flowered butterwort is a charming carnivorous plant with striking large violet flowers. Its sticky, glistening leaves lure unsuspecting insects, which become trapped and digested, supplementing large-flowered butterwort's nutrient intake in the poor soils it typically inhabits. This adaptation showcases the resourcefulness and specialized survival strategy large-flowered butterwort employs in its native damp, boggy environments.

Pale butterwort (Pinguicula lusitanica) is a carnivore that traps and feeds on insects. It is considered to be one of the easier carnivorous species to grow ornamentally and is therefore popular with carnivorous plant enthusiasts, although it is sometimes so successful it may be considered weedy. This plant can be rare in the wild and is under special protection status in many parts of France.

Southern butterwort is a carnivorous botanical marvel, sporting a rosette of bright green, sticky leaves that lure, trap, and digest unwary insects. Delicate, funnel-shaped violet flowers rise above the foliage, contrasting against the dewy leaves. This plant thrives in nutrient-poor, damp environments, where its clever adaptation secures necessary nourishment.

Mexican butterwort is a carnivorous plant that catches and digests insects with its sticky leaves. Native to Mexico, it prefers wet habitats like bogs and streambanks. Its attractive rosette of leaves produces small purple flowers in the spring. This plant is a must-have for carnivorous plant enthusiasts and is easy to grow in a terrarium or bog garden.

Pinguicula oblongiloba is a small, carnivorous plant with a rosette of oblong-shaped leaves. Its leaves are coated with sticky glands that trap and digest insects, a critical adaptation to the nutrient-poor, boggy habitats it thrives in. The lavender to pink flowers blossom on solitary stalks, adding a delicate charm to its otherwise lethal allure.

Dracaena are popular house plants that are easy to grow. They can tolerate low-light conditions and require little watering. Their leaves range from variegated to dark green. Their characteristic traits include woody stems that grow slowly but offer a striking appearance for small spaces such as apartments or offices.

Fig trees have been cultivated in many regions for their fruits, particularly the common fig, F. carica. Most of the species have edible fruits, although the common fig is the only one of commercial value. Fig trees are also important food sources for wildlife in the tropics, including monkeys, bats, and insects.

Brambles are members of the rose family, and there are hundreds of different types to be found throughout the European countryside. They have been culturally significant for centuries; Christian folklore stories hold that when the devil was thrown from heaven, he landed on a bramble bush. Their vigorous growth habit can tangle into native plants and take over.

The popular tree family known as maples change the color of their leaves in the fall. Many cultural traditions encourage people to watch the colors change, such as momijigari in Japan. Maples popular options for bonsai art. Alternately, their sap is used to create maple syrup.

Prunus is a genus of flowering fruit trees that includes almonds, cherries, plums, peaches, nectarines, and apricots. These are often known as "stone fruits" because their pits are large seeds or "stones." When prunus trees are damaged, they exhibit "gummosis," a condition in which the tree's gum (similar to sap) is secreted to the bark to help heal external wounds.

Nightshades is a large and diverse genus of plants, with more than 1500 different types worldwide. This genus incorporates both important staple food crops like tomato, potato, and eggplant, but also dangerous poisonous plants from the nightshade family. The name was coined by Pliny the Elder almost two thousand years ago.

Oaks are among the world's longest-lived trees, sometimes growing for over 1,000 years! The oldest known oak tree is in the southern United States and is over 1,500 years old. Oaks produce an exceedingly popular type of wood which is used to make different products, from furniture and flooring to wine barrels and even cosmetic creams.
