My collection of carnivorous plants

My collection of carnivorous plants

Most of my carnivorous plant collection consists of clones of the Venus flytrap (Dionaea muscipula). These plants fascinate me with their active insect-catching traps that resemble bear traps. Other, less numerous groups in my collection include sundews (Drosera) and butterworts (Pinguicula). Additionally, I have a smaller selection of bladderworts (Utricularia), pitcher plants (Nepenthes), Heliamphoras, and North American pitcher plants (Sarracenia).

I grow these carnivorous plants in indoor conditions. My Venus flytraps thrive on the outdoor windowsill, while the Heliamphoras and some of the pitcher plants are kept in a terrarium. The remaining plants are placed on the indoor windowsill.

I actively aim to expand the number of species in my collection, though space quickly becomes limited given the constraints of apartment living.
