The Venus flytrap is a small carnivorous plant best known for capturing prey with a trapping structure. It lives in poor soil, needs nutrients from insects and grows easily. Acidic soil and high humidity are essential. 

At the 10th China Flower Expo, which is being held on Chongming Island, Shanghai, from May 21 to July 2, carnivorous plants have attracted much attention. Here are some photos of Venus flytraps taken at the expo.
