A Gardeners Forum Forums General Discussion The House Plant Forum Carnivorous Insectivores Indoors My first attempt at an insectivore terrarium

Got a few carnivorous plants from Lowes and decided i wanted to make a terrarium, kinda much bigger than the plants need right now but hopefully they'll stay alive long enuff to grow into it. I have a Purple Pitcher, Venus Fly Trap, Sundew and a Butterwort.

VFTs and Pitcher plants are outdoor plants, think of it as growing strawberries or roses in a terrarium. You just wouldn't do it unless in extreme conditions. For your plants to survive and be happy you should probably take them out.

I grew Pitcher plants for a few years,, I always took them outside in the spring thru fall,, they grew very well outside!
