Carnivorous plant pictures. A lot of them.

Mini-bog

The mini-bog and main bog are really starting to kick into gear. I've got a bunch of flowers on the pitchers and I'm starting to get fully grown pitchers.


















Sundew








Venus fly-trap.


This is the only pitcher plant that I for sure know what it is: Purple pitcher plant, Sarracenia purpurea.




Main bog


No idea what this beetle is, but he sure was pretty. You know, most of the time the macro function on my camera is crap. But sometimes it really surprises me and throw out stuff like this.

Spider space!

These little spiders have set up shop on the underside of the pitcher lid.

Wow! Not only are those lovely plants, but they're absolutely gorgeous pictures!

Thank you! The camera decided to cooperate this time. I'm hoping to turn some of these into nice prints to sell.

These are wonderful. I've always wanted to grow some carnivorous plants! Absolutely lovely.

My outdoor carnivorous are really among my easiest plants. the minibog is the easiest because other than making sure it stays damp, I don't even need to weed it like I do the main bog. If you've got a damp spot or a spot under an eave that you've been thinking about putting a rain garden in with full sun, I've seen people grow them up to zone 5 (US) without a problem.

I live in BC, Canada and I never get to see plants like those. Very cool!
