I have visited hardware store and found out they have had a bunch of nearly dead carnivorous plants. I have to say, I have never seen Drosera capensis in such a poor condition. They have had two small Nepenthes hookeriana plants which were in much better shape, but they also seemed stressed out. All the plants were planted into peat based soil, covered with some kind of patch moss.

I decided to buy the one that was in better shape. Here it is. Hopefully I will be able to make a before after photo in a few months.
