About
Matt Kaelin: Matthew
Kaelin is the author of The
Sinister Beauty of Carnivorous Plants and
has over two decades of experience cultivating carnivorous
plants. Beginning in early 2012, he also engaged in a continuous,
comprehensive evaluation of the habitats of native carnivorous plants
of Long Island, NY, where he is credited for discovering populations
of the Sundew hybrid, Drosera rotundifolia x intermedia, which were
the first recorded observations of these plants in New York State.
