I just set up a moss pole for my larger monstera, and it’s already looking neater and less unwieldy. I’m hoping Frida will grow some bigger leaves now that she has a little support.

      The plant in the lower right hand side is a Cape Sundew or Drosera, and it’s a carnivorous plant. 😁

    Uhmmm, carnivorous plant... you are still alive so it doesn't attach the owner, good to know! Lol... I'm new to this... does it eat bugs? I gotta look this up...

      @StormLover Yes, it catches small flies and gnats, and fortunately has not developed a taste for human flesh!!! 🤣 Those red tipped branches curl around the plant’s prey. You don’t have to feed it for the plant to thrive, but if it does catch bugs, they act as extra nutrients for the plant. Carnivorous plants are one of my areas of interest 😉
