Hi my name is Joy and as stated in the Subject I'm from Scotland. I'm new to Carnivorous plants. I got my first FlyTrap off Amazon and it was a no hope at all. Put me off to tell the truth. I try one more time and got one off eBay, I was saying I'll give this one last go and give up. This plant was great and the little baby as took off.

I have been looking around the site for a while to get input and see it was very helpful. So here I am today.

Now along with my Audrey III, I have one Red Dragons and waiting on another to come, two Red Piranha and another three FlyTraps. I also have two Drosera Aliciae Sundew, which sadly I don't think I'm doing very well with them. So I think I can safely say I've been hook or bitten, you can pick?

Anyway thanks for having on this forum and I hope that in time I may be able to help you, once I know what I'm doing? :)

Hello and welcome!

This is a great site for resources and learning. Everyone here is very helpful and knowledgeable.

I am particularly fond of the Drosera varieties (this year anyway) and quite new myself.

I just became the father of two freshly sprouted Aliciae. Perhaps we can help you diagnosis what ails them..
