[QUOTE="wangi, post: 119778, member: 3543"] Hmmm. Glad I read this thread. Just rescued my mam's fly trap, some of the leaves are dying off and she thinks it's done for but maybe they've just closed their allotted number of times. It has 2 flower stalks (a mummy and a baby one :) ) and I left some Drosophila next to it, thinking it could do with some nitrogen. It's caught one Drosophila, I gave another leaf a small cricket. So that's its food for a month. It's still got 2 open leaves. I killed one when I was little by giving it shed loads of crickets...over feeding I guess. I never realised they ate so little! They're quite beautiful and fascinating, much better than poncy bagonias and dahlias any day ;) [/QUOTE]
