RE: Ecology Writ Small: In the Stomach of A Carnivorous Plant
Carnivorous plants are awesome, but also super tricky to grow- Darlingtonia, notably, is often considered one of the single most difficult houseplants to grow. Definitely not for beginners. I keep lots of houseplants, but no carnivorous plants yet.
I did keep Venus fly traps sometimes as a kid, and boy did I love feeding bugs to them.
Yeah I have heard they are hard to grow. Maybe I'll give them a try this year :D
You definitely should! It'd also make for a fun little post series, too.
My wife keeps buying carnivorous plants because she thinks they are really cool, but we have never had any that have survived for more than a few months so far..
