Carnivorous Plants

You know, I have always wanted to try a Pinguicula sp. Did I spell that right?

Yup that's right. I love Pings, very easy to grow, in my area it thrives happily by our north facing window and okay with tap water too.

That is good to know..it is just that the seller I got it from always grows them indoors in shade, not in a terrarium just sitting in water. So I just followed same. but it is thriving nicely as you said with full sun by our south facing window. I guess as long as it has moisture below it is okay.

Trying to get a photo of the little pitcher forming on my nepenthes..so cute..looks like it has its own antennae little pouch opening still forming

A photo update of my nepenthes..pouch has gone bigger and green, still not ready to open up its lid though. Older pitcher almost died, ooops..I may have been spraying it too much, so I stopped the spraying on the pitchers and has stopped the decay. So I just spray directly on the moss/media. So I think all is well for now.
