I'm not the best photographer, but I try. I don't have the best collection, but it's growing (hehe). I find pictures are a great way to see progress in slow-going things like plants and aquariums. So without adieu, here are my first plants!

With me being a newbie to the CP world I came home tonight and checked on my babies like i usually do only to find some predatory action going on for the first time.

I've watched as my s. leucophylla 'red ruffles' put on more pitchers, and wondered what else I was seeing.
I believe I got a bonus when I bought this plant.
A sundew. This looks like my temperate drosera intermedia growing practically on top of the sarr.
Do I have to separate them? Am I...

Hi! I just joined this weekend. I'm very new to carnivorous plants, but my journey with them started years ago. I have a koi pond, and while shopping for bog plants years ago I discovered this crazy looking thing labeled "pitcher plant." The only thing the label said was keep moist and give lots...
More to come soon...

I know that Sarracenia hybrids are among the most difficult to identify due to the possibility of nearly all members of the genus crossing with one another, but could anyone help me to try and identify my two hybrids? Both hybrids are frost tolerant and grow well in full sun.
Hybrid #1:

Unfortunately I don't have many plants to take photos of. Oh well.
I'll update this thread periodically whenever something neat happens.

I decided to start with pitcher plants in a container bog.
I'm using a heavyweight plastic pot 16 inches high with a 14 inch diameter at the top. (It tapers down to about 10 inches in diameter.) I used a 50/50 mix of peat and play sand, which I mixed, watered and let sit in the pot for about...
Greetings all,
I am procrastinating right now and avoiding responsibility for just a few more minutes so I thought I would make a list of some of the carnivorous plants I think are best to start with- a long with some comments. This list is meant to be pretty general and is perhaps USA centric...

So, while my S. leucophylla was coming out of dormancy, I carelessly left it too close to a path. Its tallest emerging pitcher was bent.
Now that it has opened, it lies toppled and imperfect, but it is healthy. My question is can I cut this pitcher without damaging the plant greatly to increase...
