This spring, I cut off the flower stalks from my Venus Flytraps. Instead of throwing them into the green bin, I thought "What the hell? Might as well try to propagate these.". Needless to say, my results were more than successful.

I think it's the heat and humidity that gets the cuttings going. The plastic wrap keeps in moisture while allowing the windowsill sun to heat them to around 95 or so degrees.

It's amazing how many buds will form from a flower stalk.
