While it’s not Carnivorus, the ant plant is a mutually beneficial species with ants! It provides housing and nectar, and the ants provide protection from pests and fertilizer! Super excited to grow this!

Hello! I just purchased my first two carnivorous plants today 😊 what are the best recommendations for soil? I don’t know how soon these should be repotted but just want to be prepared

My son's Venus flytrap is trying to flower, but I believe that weakens this plant correct? He's already really struggling after we accidentally left him in the sun too long and it had a bad sunburn.

Is it normal for some traps to die after I feed my Venus? I just got her a few days ago and some of the other traps turned black and the rest of the plant seems wilty? I have her in sphagnum moss and perlite, I just fed her yesterday and she’s in a south facing window but I’m kinda scared it’s not enough light considering there’s a fence pretty close to my window and I have light refracting privacy film on it. So is it not enough light or the fact that I fed her?

Added another nepenthes to the collection. The one on the left we got today and the other one is from a couple weeks ago. I don’t have any clue what kind of nepenthes either of these are but that won’t stop me from keeping them happy!
