Anyone grow and or collect any of the various carnivore plants? Venus fly trap, pitcher plant, etc. Just started and this is what I have, Audrey 3.

I tried. But, alas, I have a black thumb and failed miserably. Even my cactuses had to go into my dad's care before they, too, died. :cry:




My mangroves aren't dead yet though! (But that's a discussion for another thread)

They are native to North Carolina so they do best out side..in peat moss always always keep it soaking wet.
