Shaggy flytrap
Childproofing at its best
My Venus fly trapās larger traps are all on their way out. They hadnāt eaten in maybe two months so I prompted a large trap with a fly I caught. The large traps are not responsive. Should I prune them? Will the little traps survive without food?
Hi, I'm thinking about getting a carnivorous plant but I didn't have much luck with my sundew a year ago and it sadly died. I had it in a glass jar with a lid on but not hair tight and there was a gap, what did I do wrong? And any tips on which Carnivorous plant is easiest to care for?
Hi new plant mum here this is Jeff had him a couple weeks now and he has made a lot of dramatic changes since I bought him from the garden centre I picked the least dead looking one there and he has truly flourished since havenāt killed him yet thank god so Iāve been watching a lot of Venus flytrap videos to really get a thorough understanding of water etc now Jeffās been blessed with a last minute heat wave we had after a bearable summer and Iāve just started hearing about the dormancy period when it cools down and I just wondered what does this entail and what do I need to do with him thank you! (Ps is that little bud in the middle a flower growing it looks different to the rest)
this is hwahwa, my venus flytrap. the colder months are coming soon so iāve been debating on how to keep her dormant during the winter! i live in zone 6, which is a little too cold to just have her outside, but my apartment complex doesnāt really have any indoor cold spots where i can let her sit. i read that a protected outdoor dormancy is suitable if you live in a colder area, so iāve been looking into these tiny portable greenhouse thingsāso you think putting her outside in one of these will work? any tips are appreciated!
Ive had my venus fly trap for about 4 months now but my biggest wonder is if it needs to be fed? Ive never done it but i keep seeing contrasting opinions on google
Sundew has been absolutely glowing in the recent sun weāve had!
Hi there! I just joined, but Iāve been keeping and rehabilitating nepenthes for almost a decade now. Iād love to keep really rare specimens someday but for now I seek out nearly dead nepenthes in shops and stores all around the PNW. Iām always available for questions or nepenthes health consultations for free @nepenthomancer on ig.
Hi all! I left my baby put her plant in the office Friday-Monday and came back to it looking like this. Can he be saved?
Hi quick question how do I tell if my Venus flytrap has begun itās dormant period or if itās just got dead leaves
New dionaea muscipula! Meet Perry! šŖ°šŖ°
Hereās Sunny with her 3 stems of flowers
My happy sundew named Sunny, she has 3 flowering stems now but I donāt have a good picture of it yet
Bog update! The flytrap ādiedā and I removed it before I realized my error š. The bog really breeds those fungus gnats, so I added a bug catcher for any they canāt snag. Just added some Pinguicula for the first time. I placed them on top of the sphagnum. Hoping they take off with the rest of the swamp.
Help what should I do with these yellow leaves
What is this long stem growing from my VFT? Iām trying to save her!š«
Anyone had ping leaves with weird notches in them? Iām wondering if itās because they developed when flower stalks were coming up?
