Correct answer: Charles Darwin

Charles Darwin was utterly fascinated by these plants, especially sundews. He spent years studying how they react to touch and nitrogen-rich substances, eventually writing 'Insectivorous Plants'. He even wrote in a letter that he cared more about Drosera than the origin of all other species! Photo: Charles Darwin, Victor Carus (translation), Wikimedia Commons, Public domain.
