Other than flytraps, I would go with sarracenia. They are beautiful pitcher plants with a wide variety of colors, shapes, and sizes. They also indulge themselves with insects, occasionally filling up the entire pitcher.

Thx guys, but I already have an S. Purpurea. I'm looking for something less common.

Hmmmm. Where to get a Bicalcarata? You guys should check out Blackjungleterrariumsupply.com, they have a wide selection. There's a giant red form for 24.99, but their out of stock. There's also have brunei orange and red flush for 11.99 in stock. Should i wait, and get something else for now, or go with the smaller forms?
