Okay, there's another Sarracenia that needs to be repotted. It has actually been long overdue. @riverflows called these plants Alien - I thank RF for the title. We have all we need, which is whole moss

The Sarracenia - AKA Pitcher Plant - is one of my favorite bug eaters. They are strong and stealthy, but very hard to propagate, though I have a couple that survived the winter. I will see if I can find

It's a warm, sunny, seventy degree day today, and it is time to finally get to the plants that need, at a minimum, more top soil to protect roots that have been exposed by winter rain and wind. We will

We are starting to get longer days as we break out of winter now. I got out there and saw that about a half dozen of my carnivorous plants have been invaded by this spiky weed. I tried downloading an app

I am not sure where it came from, but some of my carnivorous plants have been invaded by stinging nettle. You really don't want to touch this or pull on it while weeding. It feels as if you had been burned

Today I have a large venous fly trap plant that has shrunk down as if it were preparing for winter. But when I looked at it today, I see possibly two or three plants that I should be able to separate.

This is one of my favorite carnivorous plants. It is inescapable for bugs when they fly between the branches. At the end of this post, I will present you with its new baby as well. First off, its first

We are going to do Drosera maintenance today. This is important to do because the plant starts to grow up and out of the moss that it's situated in. If I don't take care of this, the plant is more vulnerable

Today we're going to finish the last step and set the roots free for the Venus flytrap. It has only been a little over a week since we repotted this Venus. We left the tiny pot under it but cut out the

The Sarracenia that I repotted is back in growth mode as the weather got nice this week. It is amazing. This post will be an update to the Double Repotting project I posted four months ago. Here is comparison

Most of the plants that I have are Droseras. Those are the ones that are very easy to reproduce simply by putting one leaf in some distilled water. The plants just sprout up after a couple of months soaking.

The best way to repot special plants, like the Venus Fly Trap, is to keep it a secret from the plant. Do not let it know that it has been repotted! I do not have much luck with growing these from seed

Winter is nearly over and I am getting ready to move this overgrown Sarracenia minor (the hooded pitcher plant) to a slightly larger pot. Moss has grown all around its base. I am sure the roots are all

Flowers 🌹🌹 are one of nature's most beautiful gifts,and among them, the rose stands out as one of the most admired and cherished. The rose flower is often called "the queen of flowers" because

Winter makes carnivorous plants get sickly looking, but now everything is greening up for bug season! Sometimes a little pot that used to contain a venus fly trap, ends up getting visitors from neighboring

This is a bit like a wet garden update. You will see a variety of plants I have in this one. I will talk a little bit about each as I go. The first one (above) is one of my venus fly traps. I had not noticed

Well, they will never be trees! And it does take about 5 to 6 months before the trimmings sprout little plants. But that's no reason not to do it! Today, I was out looking at my carnivorous plants and

It's okay. They're passive.

ENG Good morning everyone, in this post of mine today I would like to share with you my personal experience as a member of the Italian carnivorous plant association, a project that deserves greater visibility

Migrated It's starting to get warmer out here in Buenos Aires and the plants are starting to look healthy again. Well, this one is anyway. I am migrating my carnivorous plants into the larger pots which
