Can anyone let me know if my plant is dying? I got her in April and she has new pitchers. When it was growing the leaves turned red but now the leaves are turning yellow. I haven’t changed anything. Its in a small green house with grow lights on top and I haven’t changed anything a spray system that sprays water occasionally for the humidity.

We have had these two for 4 months. I’ve read that I should put them away for the winter in the refrigerator. What do I need to keep them happy and alive in the house?

I use the bucket method for my vft during these 100+ days. Evaporation is slower but still using a lot. Would like to get away from buying bottles. Does anyone have a rec for a cost effective pitcher or an aquarium setup? Thanks!

My new Venus Fly Trap caught two flies on its own and fully sealed both

Safe to say, after the MANY scares this beauty gave me, she’s perfectly healthy and growing ! (Don’t mind the black traps/leaves, they are old!)

I just got a dormant Venus fly trap from a big box store. It has roots only and I followed the directions on the package. Now we wait! Best on my understanding they are slow growers
