    Hi, Huntertony. I have cape sundew. I acquired 3 carnivorous plants last year and up to now they have survived the winter. image I'm not sure which species it is but have identified it as a Cape and up to now , have not had any problems with it.

    I read a lot of useful information on this site.

    It has a care guide as well. This year I'm going to try another Venus flytrap.

    I find them fascinating little plants.image Here is my sundew.

    Hello, now you can see what we do with some carnivorous plants-we eat them. Good cleaning (many time) and fill with sticky rice and creamy coconut souce-yam yam!

    Try Hampshire Carnivorous Plants - www.hantsflytrap.com

    As well as sundew & Venus flytrap I've a number of pitcher plants, all of which have survived for a number of years. The pots sit in trays which I keep topped up with about 0.5" rainwater all year round. Apart from removing dead leaves occasionally & repotting when they are about to split their pot that's all the attention they get.
