we went to a bog near here a few days ago. I saw things I had never seen before.
Sundew (a carniverous plant)

and pitcher plants (another carnivore), which were in bloom

My daughter found all 3 of them. Are there more bog plants I should look for? I don't know what grows in a bog, so we may have overlooked many interesting ones.
