<< < (2/13) > >>

jv:
Just got these yesterday at Home Depot for a bargain all but one is supposed to be a Pitcher Plant. The first one is Drosera has one tiny Pitcher with two more forming.



Serracenia Purperpea  has Pitchers trying to form but none yet.


jv:
Got this Venus Flytrap Dionaea has a lot of fully formed traps



Nepenthes Pitcher Plant has two Pithcers and three more forming. This and the Drosera has already caught something.



got these for $4.80 each. If you like these type plants check with you local HD. The photo's are after I transplanted them had to make up enough soil. Diane gave me a bunch already mixed plus enough ingredeiance to make up more soil.

Patty S:
Good buy you got on those, Jimmy! I've tried some of those kinds of plants (several times) but I can't seem to keep them alive! What's your secret?  ???

jv:
Rain or distilled water only and ignore them. My big ones are in full sun right now after it starts getting hot will bring them onto the porch to protect from the sun.

Dianna:
I had a Venus Fly Trap years ago. It didn't live long. I gave it regular water, so I guess that is the reason... >:(

I named it Igor... ;D
