Until this past plant sale (9/18/14), we never sold many carnivorous plants, save for the occasional Venus flytrap. But this time around, I was able to propagate a large number of
Nepenthes ventrata (Asian pitcher plant or monkey cups) as well as a few
Sarracenia "Cobra's Nest" (North American pitcher plant).
Every single carnivorous plant (CP) I brought for the sale was sold! We will definitely have more for our next sale, and I am working on propagating other species for the spring, such as sundews and Mexican butterworts. In the meantime, I'll take more cuttings of
Nepenthes and continue leaf pullings for Venus flytraps.

If you have any questions about how to care for your CPs, I would recommend that you take a look at
our care sheet (adapted from the care sheet at the
Flytrap Store).
