# hello! my boyfriend recently bought me two pitcher plants and a venus…

_Posted by RI on 2025-07-31_

hello! my boyfriend recently bought me two pitcher plants and a venus fly trap i have experience with the venus fly trap and plan to put it in a terrarium but i wanna keep my pitchers in hanging baskets and right now my biggest issue is keeping the soil constantly moist and im wondering if anyone has had any luck with keeping them in a self watering pot??

i ended up asking around in facebook groups and found that a lot of people do it actually!
