Sarracenia Leucophylla

Hi I am new to the group. This is my largest sundew enjoying multiple gnats, and a one plump fly

Welcome to the group. Nice plant and nice picture.

I'm on the other side of the pond, so this isn't a real entry because I'm not sure a gigantic VFT would enjoy the trip across the Pacific.

But this is the first time one of my VFTs caught something on it's own, so I felt the need to post it for show and tell...

Here's a Green Lynx Spider (Peucetia viridans) on my Sarracenia Daina's / Dana's Delight (from the flytrapstore - many years ago!) with a wasp. The spider was obviously taking advantage of insects being attracted to the pitcher plant (and caught other insects too) .

That's awesome to see! I still have some that I acquired many years ago now and they are still gorgeous like yours

That is a beautiful Sarracenia. The spider and wasp are epic as well

So this is why they are called Hercules ('Hercules' x self seedling).

Overachiever!

I know that, according to my own rules, posting a second picture disqualifies me, I had to share my glutinous B52.

How about a little big appetite? Here is a trap of an unidentified utric going to town on some single cell protists. I've got a video 9f the little suckered swimming around. It's hard to see them in a picture, but it's a photo contest. I might post a video somewhere else.
