Hi quick question how do I tell if my Venus flytrap has begun it’s dormant period or if it’s just got dead leaves

Bog update! The flytrap “died” and I removed it before I realized my error 🙄. The bog really breeds those fungus gnats, so I added a bug catcher for any they can’t 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.

Anyone had ping leaves with weird notches in them? I’m wondering if it’s because they developed when flower stalks were coming up?

Hey all! I have this VFT that I’ve had for a month and a half to two months now. They look a little crowded? Idk if they prefer this setting or if I should consider repotting?

I was so excited when I saw my local nursery had received these large Nepenthes! I had to bring one home. I’ve never seen a large one IRL so I’m very happy to have this beauty added to my collection.

New to the carnivorous plant corner. I think I have two different types of pitcher plants. I have seen them on natgeo nature documentaries various times and found them at my local farmers market. The only thing I have to figure out is the soil for these beauties. I don’t know if I should mix my own and what type of soil they sell for carnivorous plants?

Greetings carnivorous plant people! What type of potting media would you recommend for a pitcher plant and do you know of a good place to get some? Or should I try mixing my own? Thanks in advance!
