Stylidium (Trigger plant)
Stylidium debileStylidium debile catches it's prey by glandular trichomes that cover the scape and flower. Another fun thing it does is smack insects with its flowers, thus the common name triggerplant. The pistil and the stamens are fused into a floral column that snaps forward in response to touch, covering the insect (or your finger) in pollen. Stylidium debile is an Australian native. It's range extends from Queensland to New South Wales, but it is extinct from many of its historic localities due to habitat change by human activities. Stylidium debile is very easy to grow. Plant it in peat and grow as a subtropical Drosera. We offer plants in flower or capable of flowering (depending on the season), one rosette per pot.
