VFTs are outdoor plants, they won't live long indoors. Maybe a few tropical Sundews will help though! d. Adelae and d. Capensis do well indoors in a bright window. Mine certainly catch their share! Some Mexican Butterworts like a p. Moranensis too actually.

Carnivorous plants are some of my favorites.

Hi Sammy! Not sure about the UK as far as winter goes. Venus flytraps can't freeze. Sundews can't either.
And no need to bow to me, I'm common folk!
