It is easy to care for and and may produce plantlets as it grows\. The leaves are covered with tentacles \(trichomes\) that secrete a sticky “dew” to attract and catch prey\. The dew also contains enzymes that aid in digestion\. Once a leaf traps prey, the bug's movements trigger the leaf to curl up, introducing more dew and enzymes\. Eventually, the plant absorbs all of the nutrients in the bug leaving only the external skeleton\. \
