But i havent forgotten to take care of these guys and my theyve grown!
Each VFT even had a flower stalk at some point during spring time - which i didnt even know VFTs would have!

Thanks for looking!

Are you growing them on top of trees? Now that's creative! Love it.

Thanks for the feedback everyone!
Yup theyre living on top of small half-cut pine trees!
They thrive on plenty of flies, moths, spiders, etc living in the pine trees

@Matt, just placed an order for a few more cultivars that were on my wish list! Cant wait to receive them!
Also ordered some NZ spagmoss for repot before winter (California winter - muahahaha) too.

......or should i wait till after january/february of next year?

I repot any time of year when the flytraps need it. If they aren't suffering, I will try to leave them until January or February, but if they are declining, I always repot immediately.

I don't grow alien, so I wouldn't know. I don't know how vigorous Alien is, but I do think that not being able to eat probably has at least some effect on the speed of growth. Then again, I think Matt posted somewhere about how Alien is actually pretty vigorous.

But he's Matt, so no surprise there!
