    Office Plants

    Hi! I just gave my dad a cute little Drosera Capensis for his office. It's probably one of the lowest care plants and is very pretty which makes it a great plant for the office. I think he put it by the windowsill which gets a lot of light. I hope the plant is happy Does anybody else keep...

    D. capensis

So I decided to bring it to work - the lab - at a nice, warm, undrafty sill. At lunch I checked on it. Several of its leaves withered. I...

    New to venus flytraps

    I have a FT that I purchased about a month ago. This is my second one, and although I've read they are relatively easy to care for, for the life of me I don't seem to have much luck with them.
