RE: Updates: Pitchers, Venus, Binata, and Mary Jane
That's quite a lot of carnivourous plants you have :O
I used to have a Venus flytrap ages ago, poor thing disintegrated when I went on holiday and the friend that was supposed to be looking after it didn't quite follow the instructions x_x I should see if they'll survive in our climate as I want to get more especially seeing as youngest has expressed an interest in them.

Mine survive outside year around and they have never had any direct sunlight. I killed a few when I started out.
Now I just water them from below - Distilled only - and enjoy their beauty.
Sometimes, they look like they have died in the winter. What happens? They pull their energy out of the leaves and into the bulb-like roots as a survival technique. Keep them from drying out and they usually come back.
That's encouraging ^_^ How cold does it get where you are? We were concerned they wouldn't survive winter (or the height of summer for that matter).
