I was surprised this morning to see that one of my tiny baby Flytraps had caught its first meal, a tiny soil gnat. (photo below)
This plant is about two months old (2 months since germination) and the little black seed can still be seen attached to the cotyledons (seed leaves).
For anyone who may be interested, the seedling tray is a 200-cell Speedling brand insulating styrofoam (polystyrene) tray with a plastic insert (so the sand doesn't scratch the styrofoam.
