Hey guys,
So today I took my Venus fly trap outside to water it like I normally do but I forgot to move it back in before I left for work. When I got back the entire plant had been dug out of the pot and all of the mature leaves had been eaten off (rabbits I think). The plant was completely dried out and shriveled so I got it into a pot of distilled water as fast as I could and got it out of the sun. After a while in the water I replanted it and split the 3 rhizomes while I was at it.
repotted plants
My question for you guys is what do you think are the odds that this plant is going to survive? Also is there anything I should do to increase the chances? Right now I've got it in full sun, 100% peat moss for soil, and watered with lots of distilled water.
Also I'm perticulairly concerned about this rhizome since all the leaves got eaten off. Any chance it'll live?
