FlytrapCare Carnivorous Plant Forums

Thanks for the add to the forums.

I have a flytrap "Harvey Weinstein" He is about 4 years old. It was a grouping of three plants.

Harvey has been getting smaller and smaller over the last year. One of the three plants died. Roots looked rotted, so I cut down on water.

Then I mistakenly left the terrarium in the window in direct sunlight too long and burnt one of the plants.

I am concerned that if I don't start taking care of this properly, it will die. While I still had traps, I had started feeding it with bloodworms. Now there are no traps that are big enough.

Any advice to revitalize Harvey would be appreciated. I think that I have been doing it wrong for quite a while.

Good growing,

4 years indoors and declining makes me think they you have gone without dormancy. While that is possible, it requires very specific care. Likely the plant is just exhausted. Follow ChefDean's advice and get it outdoors. This winter give it a good dormancy rest and you will see a different plant next spring.

Welcome! Sounds like the others have pointed you in the right direction for learning proper care techniques. Feel free to ask any more questions you might have though!
