I always remember the great pleasure I had in repeating the experiments, described in your work on insectivorousplants.

How widely distant they are from the beautiful adaptive organizations of orchids, of insectivorousplants and of so many others!

Speaking generally, the transmission takes place more readily in the longitudinal direction than across the leaf: see " InsectivorousPlants," page 239.)

Clearly it had not occurred to Darwin that seeds may supply nitrogenous food as well as insects: see " InsectivorousPlants," page 390.)

The rest of the year was taken up with his work on insectivorousplants, and on cross-fertilisation, as will be shown in a later chapter.

Climbing plants and tendrils, insectivorousplants, desert types-submergedwater plants, and numerous other instances could be adduced (1922, p. 22).
