FlytrapCare Carnivorous Plant Forums

Here's how my mini-bog looks so far. Its a bit of an eyesore right now, but i hope it will look good once everything grows in. I might buy another cheap sarr and red flytrap to color it up. could use some more sundews as well.

Also, these are just extra plants. I guess I thought I had more than I do lol. I thought I had more to fill it.

Plants in it:
S. flava
S. leucophylla HCW
S. psittacina
VFT typical
VFT akai ryu
D. capensis
D. Intermedia
D. adelae
D. filiformis

This is so cool. I've always wanted to create one of these. Also, try taking a photo at a lower angle; I bet you can get some great shots that way.

Where did you get that container?

I bought it at menards in the section with pond stuff. I think its actually supposed to be a section for building a waterfall above a pond, hence the part on the left where water pours out.

I drilled drain holes about 1 or 2 inches high.

I have a mini-bog with all of the plants ive rescued from stores, and the plants that I could afford from nurseries which would be my big mouths, and capilarris hybrids. Maybe Ill post photos tomorrow.

Idk...I don't really like it lol. I'm giving it away though so I don't care too much. I just want it to be presentable.

If I only didn't live in a studio!

Once the pitchers and compost are in (with a black lining(didnt like blue lol) they look great,
ill put some pics of this years VFTs/sundews and pitchers up soon.

Lol, nice! I would not have thought to use a baby bath.

Look on the bright side. (Mine is worse. You don't want to see it

looks nice, how old is it?, as in how long has everything been planted in it, the big VFT looks very nice
if it were mine, i would probably spread the moss around a bit more, and put sandstone (or some inert rock) around the boundaries of it, and maybe over the rim a little bit

looks good though

Most of the plants were bought this year and I planted them this august. It looks pretty much the same & it's sitting in my boss's greenhouse.
