2016 is the first year I have been able to do any gardening. I live in southwestern Ohio, USA. I love roses, orchids, toad lilies...everything 😁

Looked at my fly trap this morning and noticed something different grown in the center. Is that a flower stem growing?

Wow! Never seen one flower, i looked it up, and it takes a lot out of the plant when it does flower, it may even die, if you are not experienced with the plant...says to cut it off if you are not sure... hard choice to make 😦

@jawjam. I haven't in the past either. Been a long time since I had one. But I don't think I kept it watered enough before. Got this one a few weeks ago. Giving it another shot.

Yea, I think they do best in terrariums, they like a humus and humid, warm environment.

@jawjam. Yes they do like humidity. That is why mine is outside right now. Ohio has a lot of humidity.

Finally found a fly trap. I also found a kit with a dormant fly trap root and a dormant pitcher root. I got them potted. Can't wait to see how they do.
