Les plantes insectivores ont développé des adaptations leur permettant d'utiliser, comme source d'éléments nutritifs, les insectes qui se posent sur leur feuillage. C'est habituellement dans les milieux pauvres en éléments nutritifs, comme les tourbières acides du Québec, que l'on trouve des plantes insectivores.

Des 500 espèces de plantes insectivores retrouvées dans le monde, quinze sont présentes au Québec, dont plus de la moitié appartiennent au genre Utricularia.

Au Jardin botanique de Montréal, les plantes insectivores sont exposées à l'intérieur d'une mini serre située dans la première des 10 serres d'exposition accessibles via le Complexe d'accueil adjacent au bâtiment principal.

Admission: 15,00 $
Parking: 10,00 $

Les coordonnées ont été prises à l'entrée du Complexe d'accueil.
