carnivorous plant bog

This year some how my pitcher plants are a little slow to start, the big pink one just started to come out last month! But now my little container is almost explode! I'll have to take a picture.

Should we have pitcher plant exchange? I have about 3 -4 kinds but I know there are more pretty ones out there!

We could, I think spring is the time to do it, just at start up growth. Need to read up on it. Let me get a shot of what is growing right now so you can see what kind I have, at least what they look like lol

yep, spring will be good. it'll give them time to start growing before next winter

My ceramic pot that i used last year leaks this year so water never stay full, but we got lots of rain so no problem about wetness.

Mine got about 6 hrs of sun then get shade in the afternoon. I like to have mine in the container so when i get fly infestation in the house (like 20+ flies flying around the house for a few days a year, wonder where/how they got in) i just move my pitcher in the house, leave it for a day, then the next day the flies were all (well, almost)in the pitcher I got dead flies to the brim of the pitcher, those pitcher got rotten later though.

these are pics from last year (a lot less than this year, i will really have to get picture)

This year pitcher plants. The pictures make it feel like they are not tight but they are very tight in that bowl.

I need to get you a nice picture, I took one out of the window, it did not show them well. Yours look great.
