Hi there, folks, I rescued a very sorry looking flytrap from B&Q today. Hopefully I can give it a chance. Do you think I should snip off the leaves that are partially closed? There are some growing so I'm hoping it will be replenished. I'm in the UK so luckily there's no shortage of rain water for me to collect, but it's getting dark here and I don't have a grow light. What should I do regarding it's winter dormancy?
Update on my my pitcher! Giving my pitcher a lot of light and using freeze-dried bloodworms to feed. Can really see in the difference of the traps that grew before/after i got it
Got a Venus fly trap from Trader Joe’s, any tips on how to give it a long happy life ☺️. I’m building the terrain so far I got a glass bowl, moss, and carnivorous plant soil.
Rescued this baby from Trader Joe’s where she was not doing well!!! Already looking better, but would appreciate any tips. I’ve already repotted her and have her under a grow light now.
Got this hanging pitcher plant back in April! He’s eating good in my neighborhood lol
Good Noon! My son chose this VFT while I was looking @ other plants and ummmm….yep we are learning along the way. :)
I have had this pitcher plant for about a month. It has grown a lot and toppled over to one side. I was rotating it about once a week, but now with all the growth on one side should I keep that side facing the more direct sunlight. Should it be trellised?
My first open pitcher! So exciting!
Pygmy sundews doing well!
Drosera nidiformis seedlings!
My first pinguicula flower! This beauty is pinguicula Estrellita ✨🌸
Cute little pinguicula elhersiae
Howwwww do I care for this?? I just got it and it’s not in the best condition. I am obsessed but need to help heal it and I have no idea what I’m doing. Advice needed thank you 💕
I found this pitcher plant at Food City today. If anyone has any advice about how to care for it I’d appreciate it.
Have to show off the most beautiful pings in my collection right now 😍 ehlersiae x 'mighty mouse', emarginata x cyclosecta, agnata x gypsicola, and 'pirouette'
Starting freaking out yesterday thinking my Nepenthes St Gaya had scale. After looking closely I realized it's just EFN. This plant has been putting out beautiful pitchers like crazy and is quickly becoming a favorite in my collection, if it had a pest infestation I'd be inconsolable!
Just saved this guy and not sure how to help it. Any advise?
I need help with my fly trap, its getting colder where I live (6a) and i dont know if i should bring it inside with a grow light or if i should put it in the fridge like ive seen other people do it for winter.
Need some identification help. I just bought this pinguicula, but I don’t know what type it is. I intend to repot it, but I’m seeing different recommendations based on whether the species is temperate or tropical. And any recommendations for soil and such would be greatly appreciated! Thank you!
hey y’all! i got a venus fly trap yesterday and i set it on my window seal, but im in a basement-ish area with a few plants outside my window so there isn’t a ton of sun coming in. should i get a grow lamp for my fly trap to make it happier? also, does anyone have any recommendations for getting it more bugs if there aren’t a ton roaming around my house?
