Hi everyone, I am new here to this mailing thing.
I have bought some packet from a garden shop in the U.K which includes a
packet of seeds and some dried up soil and a 2" pot.
I have now successfully germinated the seeds into tiny plants, these are
suppose to be venus flytraps but they haven't any traps formed yet.
Is this normal, do they have to grow a bit to form traps?
I am new to this whole thing about carnivorous plants and know nothing much
about it. Could anybody give me some advice on how to grow these Venus
flytraps and what soil is best to use etc..
I also want to start tissue culturing, could anybody advice on that too?
And could somebody tell me what is the best carnivorous plants to grow in
terms of both easyness and beauty.

email me at eyhm@btinternet.com

thanks

ernest
