They look great! Remember that the Venus Flytraps have entered dormancy, so it might be nice if you could provide them with cool temperatures and not too much water (water thoroughly, but allow to almost dry between waterings, is what I mean). The Drosera capensis don't need a dormancy, but you can accommodate both VFTs and the Drosera by allowing the temperatures to be in the 40s to 50s most hours. That's cool enough for the Flytraps and warm enough for the Drosera capensis. Warmer daytime temperatures won't do any harm.

The Venus Flytraps will probably come out of dormancy in the last half of March or first half of April.

Good luck and happy growing. :)

Thank you Steve, i just change all the VFT's to the pot where all the other VFT's are sleeping, and the droseras i have a lamp that i can use everyday to give them the necessary light and warm since they're tropicals!

Sorry Harris :( haha, perhaps in the future i would be able to send you seeds from the cupped trap :)!
