I am in Los Angeles right now, I was wondering if anyone knew of any places where you could see carnivorous plants 😀

First time owner of this cute carnivorous plant. Meet Audrey II. My husband got to experience the little guys first meal while I was at work. Sadden but excited at the same time. Will be re-potting him later today as I had to order the particular soil and collect rain water for the guy

Pinguicula Cyclosecta got her colour back after going all green because she didn’t get enough light. 🥹

My son was gifted a Venus Fly Trap for Christmas. Within that time frame we’ve come to really love this little guy. We are both first time owners and are going at this with as much google research as possible. A couple of questions. It is in a grow pod and the light is on for atleast 12 hours a day. It has distilled water, the proper soil (I believe) and had its first round of insects around Christmas time. The traps closed immediately on the insects but have since opened and have clearly not fully absorbed them. 1) Why haven’t the traps fully absorbed the insects and do I just leave it like that? 2) Some traps, not all, are turning brown and rotting. I’ve already pruned one trap off that seemingly browned and rotted overnight a week ago. A new browning/rotting trap appeared within the last few days. Why is this happening? New traps are sprouting so I can’t imagine the entire plant is sick and some traps are fully okay.

Hey everyone! Yesterday I got my first Venus fly trap and I've watched some videos and read a few articles but I want some opinions and advice from others with more experience. I am planning on getting a bigger lightly coloured plastic pot with good drainage in a few days and I have rinsed the current soil which is what I was told to do by an expert grower online. I've heard of the downtime it has during the winter and I'm still confused about that. I've fed it a spider as well. Ive heard that they need lots of light so it's been under a grow light all day. 3 of the mouths are red on the inside, which is a good sign, while some are just green. Based off of the photos, let me know if there's anything you think I should do or if anything is wrong.

Anyone know what type of Nepenthes this is? The link they gave for its care and information didn't work.
