Sundew III was at Foxhams in 1951, Quote from a letter received by me dated 30th September 1951, “I see Sundew and her filly foal – nearly every day and they always come at the gallop for their scraps of, “bread crusts.”  Nettie, (her dog), is very jealous of them and chases them,”

Notes:
Sundew grows in wet peaty places on heaths and moorlands. It is a carnivorous plant that traps insects on its sticky leaves. There was always a pony named ‘Sundew’ at Foxhams.
