| Plumbago auriculata, the cape leadwort,blue plumbago or Cape plumbago, is a species of flowering plant in the family Plumbaginaceae, native to South Africa. The specific epithet auriculata means "with ears", referring to the shape of the leaves. It is visited by various butterflies. Their leaves serve as food for the caterpillar of Hummingbird hawk-moth. Conversely, the sticky sepals sometimes catch animals up to the size of a housefly. It is believed that the plumbago species living today are very similar to the first ancestors of Drosera and other carnivorous plants. |
