Hi,
I’m a new CP fan in Zone 9b San Francisco East Bay Area. Like many I killed my fair share of Flytraps over the years with bad advice.

In June my club took a field trip to California Carnivores ...the mecca

That day I bought my first 2 Sarrs and a Drosera. I bought a tiny Nep “Rebecca Soper” as a gift.

I keep all except my new Nepenthes outdoors in the sun.

I look forward to learning from all of you.
