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 have a thriving fly trap...great little plant that has gone from one plant to about...15 in just about two months.
 
its outside floating in peat moss in a dafnia tank so no watering required
 
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.
 
here are some pics.it started out pretty spindly and had about 6 leaves when we bought it.
