It is a very close contest and can change quickly. If you haven't added your picture yet, there is still time to join the contest. If you don't have a bog photo to share with us (or even if you do), be sure to look through the posts and vote for your favorites. If you have already voted, check back again and see if you feel that any of the new additions are worthy of your vote.

Just a reminder, this is this month's prize from @Matt and Leah at The Flytrap Store :

Does anyone have sundew blogs I'll vote u u vote me!

We're down to the final hours of our June photo contest and we currently have a tie for first place. Plus, first and second are only separated by 2 votes! Here are the current standings:
slicric78 9
Panman 9
Carnies 7
Stratofortress 7
michijake 6
Nepenthes0260 4
optique 4
Seith Snow 4
sundewd 4
Darkroom Denizen 3
Plant_master 3

In the case of a tie, we will have a run off contest between the photos tied for first place to determine the winner. We have had some great photos shared, so be sure to take a look at them all and vote for your favorites!

Is that baby vft old enough to flower, or am I seeing an optical illusion?

That was a leaf pulling but I recall being pleasantly surprised (it was 2011 or 2012) that indeed such a tiny flytrap could produce a flower. Must have had something to do with the plant being a leaf pulling.

And this month's winner is @Panman, or more accurately, Panman's daughter, with this photograph of her bog.


Thank you to everyone for participating. You all have some gorgeous plants. Keep an eye out for this month's contest.
