And why?

I haven't gotten the opportunity to raise anything but VFT's, but it's probably a close tie between VFT's and Drosera =]

Sarracenia are my favorites by far (and this is reflected in my growlist ), particularly S. flava. I love the shape of the pitchers, the great color variety and weird flowers.

i love drosea. mainly scorpiodes or capensis
i love the way they trap prey and how they look in god light condition

Mine is probably sarracenia but cephs and neps tie for a close second.

Drosera, Nepenthes, cephalotus, utricularia.

In that order.

what makes you like neps, cephs, sarrs and the like?

I like sarrs and neps because of the variety of colors and shapes. I like cephs because of the teeth.

not gonna lie, the teeth are pretty awesome. =]

The teeth are the best. I love the Cephs for it and the Neps too, especially hamata, villosa, and macrophylla.

My favorite would have to be the venus flytrap. I love the way they eat insects, the way the plant looks, their diversity, how intriguing they are, how fast they close (they can close faster than a blink of the eye, and faster than a bullet traveling a mere 100 yards!), their menacing teeth, their coloration, and so much more.

I would say that the diversity of the genus Dionaea is rather limited. It being monotypic and all.

A genus like Utricularia has greater diversity and the traps move faster, and are more advanced.
