There's now a nice Venus Fly Trap sitting on the kitchen window sill, and it has to be said there have not been as many flies around as usual. It's had two kills already, and I did have a picture, but to be honest close up on what a Venus Fly Trap does to a fly is not a pretty sight.
So after the winter I'll repot it in a larger pot, and maybe it will grow even more. When it catches the cat we'll know we're in trouble......
Progress is slow, but there are now young, new shoots turning into mature capture leaves. The latest addition is a soil hydrometer to ensure the moisture content is optimal. That seems to be having a positive effect.
Sadly, the original carniverous plants are no more. They failed to respond to treatment and are now gone.
Today saw delivery of a new, young Venus Fly Trap. It's just settling in and it's nicely watered and in a sunny place. Hopefully it will thrive like the old departed one used to!
