Hey everyone!

I am new to the hobby. I originally got started with two sundews, a capensis and a spatulata, to help control fungus gnats. I then tried to hunt down a butterwort, and the seller kindly sent me about 10 extra assorted plants to help me get started. I have tons of questions!

I'm still learning! I primarily had been growing orchids before this, and some other odd plants like mimosa pudica. I'm excited to learn with you all. Cheers!

Hi! Sorry for not seeing this until like now LOL! Welcome to the forum! I'm also new too to CPs, as of now I have four VFTs and a Nepenthes Ventrata (All are rescues from Lowes). My goal is to learn more about Sundews and Cobra Lilies, and also own my first Cobra Lily next year! I'm also in PA too, I'll say I live in Schuylkill County :D
