Hi,
I dont know if this is the correct forum but reading around theres plenty of
experience on here so someone might be able to advise.
I purchase about 2 weeks ago one of those carnivorous plants - a "sarracenia
hybride" according to the label. It was fine on my window cill until I
noticed the edges of the leaves turning brown. I left it on the bathroom
where it is more humid and it seemed to perk up. Now its back at the dying
stage. If I explain what it looks like can someone suggest a cu

The centre of the plant looks reasonably well and theres a new shoot coming
dead centre. Outwards from there it starts to die off, theres about a dozen
leaves which have gone light brown / whitey in colour, and theres several
more where the tips are turning brown, drying out and curling over and feel
crusty to the touch.
I water it every 2 days, Ive not changed anything since I bought it and
theres definately no bugs on it.

If you're watering it every two days, then it isn't damp enough. This is
a bog plant. Stand the pot in another dish which you keep water 1 inch
deep.

And use rain water unless your tap water is very soft.
