flytrap

I got a Red Dragon flytrap from a coworker a few weeks ago. There are two rosettes in the same pot, so I thought I'd take one home for my outdoor mini-bog and leave one for the windowsill at work. Well, I was lazy and didn't divide it and now both rosettes have nice big leaves and are putting up...

Hey everyone, thanks to a very nice person on this forum (DJ57) she gave me 4 beautiful plants. I decided to make an outdoor bog using these plants. Hopefully in a year or so these plants will start to fill up the pot nicely. In the pot there are 2 Sarracenia, a Dana's Delight and a Flava...

The title says it all! I traded with some of you last year and built an amazing collection of flytrap cultivars. I moved to Indiana in early August, left the plants on a private patio, and returned a week later to find that someone stole everything that was there. Fortunately, I was out of...

I got a few Sarracenias last year for my little tray garden. They did well then of course didn't look so good in winter. I'm not exactly sure what to do now. I know some need to be repotted. The big one in the back with the brown parts is a rubra gulfensis and it's got grass growing out of...

Hello Terra Forums! So, when I was doing through my terrarium cleaning up and feeding and whatever, and happened to look down at a Flytrap leaf that I had been trying to get a strike on for months now. This is what I found (best picture I could get...): Clearly, plantlets are starting to...

I have read that venus flytrap seeds need to go through a cold stratification and then I have read from other souces that they don't need to go through a cold stratification.what is the truth?

It's been a while since I've been around here. I enjoyed dabbling in CPs in the past, throughout the 2000-2007 area, but a combination of economics and my cats forced me to abandon the hobby for a while. I gave my last few CPs to a budding enthusiast some years back. I've been itching to...

Hello, I have been growing carnivorous plants for a while now, it was probably 40 years ago when I lost my first Venus flytrap because I was a kid and didn't know they needed a dormancy, our hard tap water probably didn't help either. I'm gonna guess I have been growing nepenthes for 10 years...

Looking at this most excellent webpage, I learned that D. capensis leaves were used to make tea. What is the value of this tea? What other carnivorous plants have uses? I know Pinguicula leaves have been used to curdle milk, and Venus Flytrap bulbs are prized for their supposed medicinal...

Several years ago I got some small B52 flytraps to see how they would do. Now, several years later, they are catching big wasps!! The massive size of the flytraps has infested the spaces between my sarracenia so I thought I would give one away. The giveaway B52 is still recovering from a late...
