It typically grows 30-60 cm tall, producing bluish-purple flowers in summer (July to August) that are attractive to insects. It is native to temperate regions of Asia and has naturalized in many parts of Eurasia. Its leaves and flowers are strongly fragrant, and their essential oil is rich in citral, often leading to confusion with lemon balm.
Little White Soldiers
Drimiopsis maculata
Drimiopsis maculata is a small bulbous plant native to eastern South Africa, admired for its oval leaves adorned with dark spots. It is one of the most resilient and adaptable houseplants, tolerating low light and short dry spells with ease.
Rosea Iceplant
Drosanthemum floribundum

Cape Sundew
Drosera capensis
Drosera capensis, or Cape Sundew, is a carnivorous perennial native to the fynbos wetlands of the Western Cape, South Africa. Its narrow, strap-shaped leaves are covered in reddish tentacles tipped with sparkling, sticky mucilage that lure, trap, and digest small insects, supplying the plant with nitrogen and phosphorus that its nutrient-poor native soil lacks. Prized by beginners for its resilience and rapid growth, it produces small pink, self-pollinating flowers on tall stalks and readily self-seeds, often popping up as a friendly weed in other carnivorous plant pots.
Spoon-leaved sundew
Drosera spatulata
Drosera spatulata, commonly known as the spoon-leaved sundew, is a small carnivorous plant native to Australia, New Zealand, Tasmania, and Southeast Asia. It forms a compact rosette of spoon-shaped leaves covered in red, dew-tipped tentacles that glisten to attract, trap, and digest small insects such as fruit flies and fungus gnats. It is widely regarded as one of the easiest sundews to grow, making it a favorite starter plant for carnivorous plant beginners.
Wood Fern

Native to temperate and tropical regions, they are perfect for shade gardens or as indoor plants in high-humidity environments.
Male Fern
Dryopteris filix-mas
The male fern (Dryopteris filix-mas) is a hardy, deciduous fern native to temperate regions of Europe and North America. It forms an upright, shuttlecock-shaped clump of long, lance-shaped, bipinnate fronds in medium green.

Fingertips
Dudleya edulis
Dudleya edulis, commonly called fingertips or mission lettuce, is a compact succulent native to the coastal sage scrub, sandstone sea cliffs, and rocky canyons of Southern California and northern Baja California. Its pale green, finger-shaped leaves grow upright in tight clumping rosettes, often dusted with a chalky white coating called farina that reflects intense coastal sun and reduces water loss. In late spring and summer, tall branching stalks rise well above the foliage, bearing clusters of small white to cream flowers. True to its species name -- edulis, meaning edible -- its tender young leaves and flower stalks were traditionally harvested and eaten raw by the Kumeyaay people. A tough, low-maintenance succulent, it thrives in full coastal sun to light inland shade and needs very little water once established, entering a semi-dormant rest through the hottest, driest part of summer.

It forms dense, low rosettes of stiff, grayish-green to bronze leaves edged with sharp, saw-like teeth, an adaptation that gives the species its common name. As a rheophyte, it grows directly on rocks along fast-flowing rivers subject to periodic flooding, making it exceptionally drought- and sun-tolerant. In late spring to early summer it sends up flower spikes bearing small yellow-orange blooms. Due to habitat pressure along its native river system, wild populations are considered threatened.
