Hey y'all, like a few others, I too have been lurking here for a while, and finally decided to make a profile to hopefully participate here and there. I'm relatively new to growing CPs, I only have about a year under my belt (I've been growing cacti & succulents for many years, and wanted to try...
These are the photos from my recent trip. Many more to come, but for now we'll stick with Rehder garden flytraps.
Enjoy!

Hi everyone,
I got into CPs a little over a year ago and have been referencing this and other forums for loads of care information and ideas so I figured it's about time to join in. I grow mostly Nepenthes, but have a few sundews, butterworts, flytraps, a cephalotus and an H. minor. Most of...
I don’t know if I have ever done a photo thread of my flytraps, so here goes and hope you enjoy:

So I joined this forum over a year ago and never really participated much. However, I've learned alot from the great community here and am hoping to share the little knowledge I have and gain some more! I'm currently in college (Penn State) and spending the summer at my parents farm before...
This is absolutely horrible news, but I wanted to share it with members here in case any of you knew him. I apologize if this has already been posted somewhere or if this isn't the place to post it (moderators please move/remove it if so).
Last night I received an email from someone asking if...
I was going to repot a D.Filiformis, S x Dana's Delight and S x Yellow Jacket into a larger bog pot with three venus flytraps and two bog orchids, but I have to wonder if this can be done safely during summer months. I think I can do it without disturbing very many roots, but I just wanted to...
So my terrarium and outdoor pots look kind of bland, and I've always found orchids interesting. I noticed that they seem to have similar nutrient and soil requirements to CPs, so I was thinking of growing a few with CPs.
I was thinking of a crane orchid for venus flytraps and sarracenia, and...
Here here Johnny
I must admit that I do chuckle when I see Dr No Traps advertised for around 40€ and described as a must have when all you really need is standard type and a pair of scissors.
What flytraps cannot catch food?
From what I gather, these cannot catch insects:
Wacky traps
Korean Melody Shark
Any fused tooth traps
Any ultra large traps
Angel Wings
Cup type traps
What others have difficulty catching their own food?
Some can be fed (and "massaged") in order to use...
In about 1968, when I was living in Westminster, California. I was an avid organic gardener, In the back yard, I had an organic vegetable garden, not very large (about 10' x 40'), but it contained a large variety of plants. I had two bee hives atop a grape arbor. I also kept a rooster in one...
Hi everyone,
Meadowview's online catalogue is now updated for Spring 2015. Note the that the PDF version is still not up to date, and some pictures still aren't up, but these will be up in the next few days.
We have several new offerings, including bulk venus flytraps, bulk mixed D. binata...
Hello to everyone here!
So I'm from Minnesota and I starting collecting CPs a two years ago, I'm still new to all of this. Just to prove to you how new I am, I'll tell you a story.
A year ago around winter dormancy I thought that Carnivorous plants didn't need water during their winter dormancy...
Poachers are being charged with felonies for attempting to steal ~900 flytraps from a preserve in NC. This is the first enforcement of the state's new flytrap felony law.

I replanted one of my 4-5 month old flytraps from pure LFS where it sprouted into a 50:50 peat/perlite mix, no drainage holes in the pot(old hot sauce container) yet, but the soil was taken from the top of my mixing bowl. Should I put it back under the grow lights where it sprouted until it gets...
Need to get back into giving back but a little late in the season for plants that I grow, so yesterday I harvested seed from some flytraps in the bog, Dente variety. I am not going to count them, but there are well over 100. If there is enough interest, I will split them into two packets.
Open...
Hello everyone I want to build a bog in north western Pennsylvania has anyone built on this far north or further. What plants could I put in it I now Venus flytraps won't make it through the winter could smeone help me
Just a heads up -
In December the Governor of North Carolina will have the opportunity to sign into law a bill making the act of poaching Venus flytraps a "Class H" felony (punishable of up to 25 months in prison).
I've created a Change.org petition so the CP community has a chance to speak...
HEY folks!
S0 I had a thread a little while ago about my Biolapse project where I am filming timelapse clips of carnivorous plants as they grow and develop. I had received a lot of great tips and advice, and the plants appear to be healthy and they are currently taking a break after a full...
