Ohhhhh they look happy and ready for spring. Distilled or rain water only. Bottom of pots should stay in water so soil stays moist. Dont top water.. Dont use any chemicals or reg fertilizer- will kill it. If feeding, only feed one lobe at a time( rotate between them). When lobes die off and turn black remove them.

OMG thank you Christina!! 😊 I just bought some food for them and some carnivorous soil!! I was just about to top water them so you definitely gave me great advice that I will definitely be using!!

They love humidity I would buy a small terrarium to keep them in! They are also recycling plants so when one eats food it will turn black and die off but all you have to do is cut it off and more will grow back!

Just cut the stem off?

Keep them under a humidity dome.

I fed them today for the first time cuz it took Amazon two days to deliver the food and they were so easy to feed!! I didn’t have to stimulate them at all they must have been starving cuz well fortunately I have a lack of bugs in my house!!
