There's a carnivorous plant garden in the city a few miles from us, and we're within the growing radius (70 miles, I think), so I'm crossing my fingers they'll survive. They're fascinating plants! Even when I was a vegetarian, they mesmerized me.

They'll have plenty of water from being at the receiving end of our HVAC condenser output. I have a japanese fern in that spot as well and it has flourished with the moisture.

Aww, thanks for the input and support! I'll keep you posted. I'm trying to convince myself I killed them with kindness, so I'm going to ignore these recent ones and see if they survive. 🤣

I'm in awe. I live in the only native area in the US for Venus Flytraps and have lost count of how many have met their demise under my care. I planted some (aling with sundews) by my trash can/air condenser output on the west side of my house last weekend and am crossing my fingers they survive.

Raleigh, but I only stayed for the early protest in the northern part of the city. There was a later on downtown.

Let's not forget that he integrates empirically and has nearly infinite experience with mass.
