What should I raise next?

I consider myself an amateur when it comes to CPs so I'm look for advice on my next plant(s). I've successfully raised a VFT and a Cape Sundew for two years now. I've got two large pots that are 8 inches deep and 10 inches in diameter. I've already filled one flytraps and now I'm looking to fill up the other pot with CPs that don't require a dormancy and are able to thrive as windowsill plants. So what are some CPs that would compliment my Cape Sundew?

Possibly some D. Binata or D. Spatulata.
Maybe even some Terrestrial Utricularia, tho' it will need a seperate pot.

I agree with Dan with the D.binata or D.spatulata as they are both fast growers and are interesting.

Maybe... some neps? N.sanguinea, N.ventrata, N.ventricosa, (etc.) are all fast growers and are the easier ones to grow. :)

Doesn't D. binata have a dormancy requirement?

nope. they go dormant if they are subjected to cold temps.

You could try if you are looking for easy growers D.burmanii and Mexican pings that don't go dormant like Agnata and some hybrids.
