Hello everyone!

New person to carnivorous plants. My wife and I have always had an obsession with plants and gardening, I have always been interested in carnivorous plants but never got any. We finally decided to buy some advise to get a Nepenthes to help control the fungus gnats from my wife's orchids. From there we learned about sarracenia's and sundews and now we want them all lol.
