Problem with Venus Fly Trap
"Slainte" wrote in message ... Hi, I have a Venus fly trap (Dionaea Muscipula) plant - bought in Homebase. I have been following the instructions on the label but it isn't thriving. So far since I bought it one month ago I have had to remove a number of leaves/shoots as they have turned black and apparently died. The instructions say to keep it standing in approx 5mm of water and I have been doing this. I have also tried it in bright sunlight and in the shade but it still seems to be suffering. I would dearly like to know why and what I can do to resolve the situation. Many thanks, Mo Blimey, that takes me back to the 80's when I had one. I would take it out of the water pdq, it sounds like it is drowning. Make sure it gets flies to eat regularly - swat a few and give them into their open mouths (as it were..) Best advice I have.
