I am working with a researcher at the University of Arizona who is studying carnivorous plant genomes. He is particularly interested in plants with the smallest genomes and Genlisea aurea and margaretae are at the top of his list. It is difficult to obtain much test material because these plants...
Beyond Beginner's Information: Insider's Insight
This was originally written for my friend whose interest is piqued in Carnivorous Plants. I've worked very hard on this, but I don't doubt that perhaps I've forgotten anything meaningful or gotten something wrong. Please correct, or add other...

So, I feel a little sheepish declaring a VFT seed giveaway of only 3 packets, when there are more veteran growers here giving away rare Nep hybrids, royal truncatas and Drosophyllum seeds... but in the meantime, I've got three packets of ~20-30 seeds each of good ol' D. muscipula seeds to give...
Hey everyone! I just bought a Venus Fly Trap ( Dionaea Muscipula ) and really loved it .
I am 14 years old and live in Rio de Janeiro. I have a 11 meters balcony at my apartment and want to grow my collection so i can learn more about the fascinating carnivorous plants.
By the way, heres a...
While watering this morning, I happened to notice a number of volunteers from other pots and a start or two from discarded flower stalks.

Drosera sp.
Here are a few shots of the various cultivars of flytraps enjoying the Summer weather in Northern California -- and catching more than their share of flies and wasps in the process. The fourth photo (of the pale-colored traps with the flies) was a "death cube" rescue from an Orchard Supply...
Even though Dionaea cultivars number in the dozens, I am far more interested in those which can actually perform; and that seems to be in the minority with many of them. Not so with the B52. By August, they're taking down sizable wasps . . .

It just wasn't a good 15 June for crane flies (aka family Tipulidae). For whatever reason, they were everywhere in the city a few days back; and a fair number of my plants benefited. One of the flytraps, a typical, was a .99 cent rescue in 2010 from a head shop on Haight Street in San...
