I haven’t grown any pygmy’s from gemmae before so it’s really cool to see them sprout into tiny little sundews!

Pete update! I removed all the leaves and placed him where I put my plants for dormancy. He is looking green and is even growing a bit during dormancy. Probably going to repot soon since when he had lots of leaves he was running out of room. He’s small but healthy and looks like he will be very happy in spring!

Hi, I’m new to owning nepenthes but not to carnivorous plants in general, I was wondering if anyone can help me with this one, it’s from a garden centre and was very neglected, I’ve been trying to nurse it back to health but it’s still struggling, I’ve changed its soil to a better mix and kept it under the same conditions as my other two but it just won’t perk up, any advice to help it recover? It’s a nepenthes gaya btw

After some trial and error with placement, my pitcher plant (Nepenthes ventrata) is finally giving me some pitchers. They are even catching insects which I was not expecting. What a treat! ✨🌿✨

I just love the collar on this pitcher Maximus which I believe is called a peristome.

This pitcher is my first carni plant. I've read that I should only repot once it's gone into its dormant phase. She's currently in my kitchen window and seems happy as she's grown several more pitchers, but I'm wondering if I should move her somewhere cooler? I'm in the UK and the central heating system keeps the temp fairly constant, so wasn't sure if she'd go dormant if I left her where she is?

What’s wrong with my Venus fly I use rainwater and it sits pretty close to the window and I never let the Spagna dry out
