    Default Carnivorous Plants

    Last summer I bought those carnivorous plants. I don't think they are looking very good. And I don't know much about them. I've tried to find info about keeping them in good health but never found anything. Is anyone on here able to help maybe?
    Here's a couple pics of each plants, I've got 2.
    First plant, the smallest one.

    Talking about grapes I'm hoping to get accepted in this training course for Champagne grape pruning. The course starts in January so fingers crossed. I'll know next week if I get accepted.
    And btw, after reading the info I got on the net thanks to Bud, they are ver easy to grow. I posted the link of info up above.

    BTW Bud, since you grew them before, do you think mines are a bit poor looking for their age? They are 7 months old. I know it's winter but I'm a bit worried about them. Shouldn't they be a bit bigger at least?
    Thanks for any input mate.

    I used to keep a few of these, someone once told me you can give them a tiny piece of ham although I never tried it.

    They look ok to me mate, they can be a bit finicky remember they come from a tropical environment. Take off the dead vegetation mate, it can go mouldy and spread to rest of the plant...if you have a grow on the go chuck them in, they will love it, just make sure theres no pests on the first..

    Regards BL
