# Did I successfully get one single pod of venus flytrap seeds this…

Did I successfully get one single pod of venus flytrap seeds this season??!?

Update: I think so lol. It was my first time attempting to let the flowers grow and pollinate myself. Didn’t have the proper soil. Attempting to use decorative sphagnum cuz someone told me you could use it for flytraps before. Wish me luck. Will give an update in a few weeks if it goes well.

Did it flower first?

Yeah. It flowered. They died off super quickly so I assumed I missed the actual pollination period. But it wasn’t a complete failure. Only one single flower actually produced seeds
