The Round-leaved Sundews, Drosera rotundifolia, are preparing for winter. The trap leaves die back and the plant forms hibernacula, tightly packed buds of primordial leaves. The plant survives the winter in this form and new growth begins in the spring.

The first seedlings from the 2026 Venus Flytrap harvest are ready to plant. I water germinated them this time and it seems to have worked. I think I will put them in the bog. The last stalk with seed pods is still attached and should be ready to pull in a few days.

The butterworts are flowering again. This is Pinguicula moranensis, native to El Salvador, Guatemala, Honduras and Mexico.

Found this pitcher plant at the nursery the other day. It’s in a six inch pot. It’s freaking enormous. Tag says sarracenia purpurea but that seems unlikely given that it’s green with veins (like the hulk). It could eat frogs. THE LIP. What did they feed this thing…

This is Max. Max is a traveling venus fly trap; he vacations on a sailboat in Georgian Bay. He comes for the delicious clear waters and a bug or two.

Cape Sundew (Drosera capensis) in flower. Native to the Cape region of South Africa, this sundew is one of the easiest carnivorous plants to grow, and is almost impossible to kill (I've tried). It is so prolific that it is considered a weed in commercial carnivorous plant nurseries.

Many #butterwort species from Mexico have two growth phases. When the weather is dry, they form a tight rosette of succulent leaves. When seasonal moisture arrives, they transition into their carnivorous phase, sporting larger mucilage-covered leaves that catch small insects.

#Pinguicula gigantea catches the few fungus gnats that end up in the grow space, using its large, dewy leaves. From my experience, this species is easy to propagate from leaf pullings. I like giving these away to friends and family.

Plantwatch: how a liverwort captures its prey

I switched servers just under a week ago so I figured I should do a proper #Introduction post. I’ve been on Mastodon since 2017 but never actually written a proper intro!
My name’s Sally Monster (she/her) and I’m a British northerner who immigrated to Southern California a bit over a decade ago because I fell for guy named Viss on Flickr after he posted a photo of a #HalfLife HeadCrab he made out of bread!
I’m a bit of a #KitchenWitch at heart; sharing #Food with people I love gives me a sense of wellbeing. I believe wholeheartedly in BenGingi’s motto, “We are all bread.”
I’m happiest when I have soil under my finger nails, I have a favorite tree, I talk to birds, I chase creepy crawlies and I love growing weird and wonderful #Plants especially #CarnivorousPlants and #SpicyPeppers.
I’m into #Art, #Painting, #Drawing and #Photography and will post pictures often of the things that I love. I have all sorts of random collections and obsessions; #Dinosaurs, robins, #Radiohead, #Monsters, the colour green, #JurassicPark, #Cookbooks, #TheVentureBros, #Ghost, #GothicHorror, #FolkTales, cassowaries …you get the picture.
I love it here on Mastodon. I have met so many amazing people here and I am so grateful for this community. Sending love and hugs out to all of you. 💚 🧡
