Hello all my friends!
My plant died and I'm sad. What should I get?

In order of easy things to grow, you could get a Drosera capensis, a Sarracenia purpurea and of course, you have to get another Dionaea! I'm glad to see that you want to get some new plants Lily.

The problem is, the place I buy it from isn't taking good care of it. My plant died pretty quickly.

Ahoy!
Lilly did you keep the rhizome? Even when your plant seems dead you can still resurrect it form the dead. So to speak...

just repot the rhizome and treat it as normal. There is a chance that life could return.
Sweet...

Lily,

I would recommend Dionaea "Big Mouth", "Dentate" and "Red Dragon"

All three are beautiful clones that produce very beautiful traps.

Lily, I recommended some places last night that you might have more success in getting a healthier plant. Art Knapps and GardenWorks. They get plants from Keehn's Carnivores so they should have a wider variety, and healthier plants. Both of those places have locations in Vancouver.
