Tadaa! Here's a new daily photo! :)
Nepenthes
Camera body: Canon EOS 550D
Lens: Sigma ART 50 mm ƒ/1.4
Aperture: ƒ/1.4
Exposure: 1/50 s
ISO: Dual-ISO 100+200
This is the same plant I took this macro shot from, also taken for my OPED challenge. :) This plant is situated in our kitchen.
Note to @Turpsy, this is the one you were asking whether it was Monocotyledon or Dicotyledon. According to Wikipedia, this plant is actually an Eudicotyledon which is a subgroup of Dicolytedon. You must pardon me though, since my knowledge over plants is lacking, and unlike Vera who has actually studied this, I have no idea what these things actually mean. ;)
I think I fumbled up a bit when taking this photo, I noticed in editing that I hadn't cleaned up those dried up leaves first. I should've probably done that first.
Anyway, on to the next... See you soon!

Do you know if "bandhura" has a translation? I tried translating with Google, but never got any translation. If Google detected it right, the writing form should be: बन्धुरा
Edit: Aha! it's "Bandhur", बन्धुर and it's translated "Monkey", I think it's where the name "Monkey cups" comes from, am I right?

Cool, it's a funny coincidence the hindi word "bandur" is monkey, when sri lankans call the plant "bandura", and it is also known as "monkey cups". :)
I hope I wasn't offending you when I mistook the language Google suggested as yours.

I've never seen a plant like this before...really weird looking to me. Saw your comment that it eats anything that goes in there, pretty damn cool!

I actually wish I am good in plants though. I focus more on what they contain and how I can employ that to my research. Though not my current focus for now.
Maybe you can be scientific alittle bit and classify your plants into monocots and dicots. That will be cool. or maybe I could look into that and make a post on it. hmmmm. well, not sure. lets see how it goes anyway.
I just made a post on one of the plants I have worked on. I wont be surprised if you had seen it before, since its an horticultural plant

Lol, what a strange form of a plant. I wonder if there are some creatures living inside!)) That can suddenly jump and bite you in the finger.

It's pretty much the opposite. This plant eats creatures foolish enough to wander into the cups. >:)

It eats creatures!? What if one crazy scientist decides to experiment with it and raises it to the size of a tiger. And then it will start eating bigger creatures and grows into a humongous monster!
We are doomed!

The "bags" are actually the end part of the leaf, they have evolved into fly traps of sort. They contain slippery fluid that prevents flies from escaping, and they digest them as food. :)

It's already an old camera though. If you have money to spare, you might want to invest in a newer model. Although the 550D is special in that it has some hidden features even many newer cameras don't have, if you use a software called Magic Lantern on it. Weather sealing is pretty much the only thing lacking from it.
