Scientists have confirmed Saxifraga candelabrum, flowering mountain plant from China, is carnivorous. Charles Darwin had proposed in 1875 two Saxifraga plants could be insect-eating but couldn't prove it experimentally. S candelabrum lures prey onto sticky glandular hairs, digests it using enzyme phosphatase and absorbs nutrients. It's the first confirmed carnivorous plant in Saxifragales group.
