Carnivorous Plants Sales
Man eating plants!!
Monstous plants
Keep your hands out of their mouths!!
Venus Fly-Trap $5.99
Venus Fly Trap is by far the most popular and well known carnivorous plant. It is almost every time that I mention carnivorous plants that someone tells me they used to have a Venus Fly Trap but it died. These dying plants has led to the rumor that these plants are very hard to grow, but is not true. Most people who know a few very basic growing tips will be able to keep a Venus Fly Trap alive without problem.
Pitcher Plant $6.99
Pitcher Plants are a widespread North American carnivorous plant. There are about eight species, but many varieties. Pitcher Plants are also well known and collected as hybrids. Since they can cross breed with each other, there are uncountable numbers of pitcher plants ranging in color and size. These cross-breeds, called hybrids are found not only in collections, but in the wild as well.
Sundew $6.99
The Sundews, or Drosera, are the most beautiful of the carnivorous plants. When I first started to collect carnivorous plants, I got a Venus Fly Trap, a Purple Pitcher Plant, and a Sundew. The Sundew quickly became my favorite! I started with my one Drosera adelae, but I now have 9 different kinds, which is pretty good for a small collection like mine.
Nepenthes $16.99
Nepenthes are a very interesting and beautiful type of carnivorous plant. There are about 76 species of Nepenthes and 30 of them live on the island of Borneo. Nepenthes usually grow as vines or epiphytes, which are plants that grow on other plants. They look like a tropical, broad leaf plant, except at the end of the leaf on the tip is a pitcher full of acidic digestive juices. Nepenthes use colors and certain smells to lure insects and other small animals into their pitchers so that it can digest them for food. The largest pitchers grow on the Nepenthes rajah. The most interesting Nepenthes fact is that larger species of these plants can digest small animals like rats!
Butterworts $10.99
Butterworts are a most unusual carnivorous plant. Unlike many other plants, these have a wide variety of habitats which they can grow. In addition, the history of these plants is equally unusual. Although it is a very widely distributed plant, most of the 70 described species have only been recently identified! The first one, Pinguicula acuminata, was first described in 1839, but the original plant was lost. It was re-discovered in 1989. Since this time, many new species from around the world have been discovered.
Cobra Lily $14.99
The Cobra Lily is an unusual carnivorous plant because it has a very different environment from many others. The Cobra Lily grows only in high mountainous areas along shaded streams in Northern California and Southern Oregon. The Cobra Lily was also introduced to British Columbia in a national park containing a suitable growing environment.
