FlytrapCare Carnivorous Plant Forums

Hi,
I love VFT since I was little but it wasn't until half a year ago that I got the chance to grow some myself.
Recently one of them flowered! I was so excited and wanted to pollinate them but the timing was bad so I couldn't do it. I am crossing my fingers hoping it got pollinated anyways.

Is there a way to tell if the flowers were pollinated? It's all curled up now and starting to blacken. I'm worried the seeds will fall off without me noticing.

Thanks.

Welcome to the forum.
You'll find a lot of nice people and some useful information here.
Matt, who runs the forum, posted some good articles on how to take care of your VFT.
You can find them here.
If your flower was pollinated, the ovary will swell. When it turns black and before it splits open you will see the tiny seeds inside. The look like little tiny black apple seeds.

Good growing,
Mike
