The pictures you see are that of the Horticultural Club student at Mississippi State University. I just have the three cuttings to try to root.

I would continue to use my bright yellow, sticky cards and these are very effective in capturing flying insects. I don't use pesticides in my two greenhouses. I just thought it would be interesting to grow some carnivores as well, since they prefer high humidity, warmth, and bright light. That's everything that my 100's or orchids love.

Tell me something. Do you use tap water or do you use rain/reverse osmosis/distilled water? Do you know whether tap water is a no-no for growing these plants? I am thinking of growing some Drosera as well as the three Nepenthes (if they root).
