HEllo Gil,
Try Home depot,Lowes and OSH. they should have this as well as Pitchers plant from time to time. You cn also try to join a Carnivourus plant group local or Internet, they should have extras from time to me. There is a chapter that meets in San Gabriel, and my friend who is a member use to bring me trays full of cqarnivourus plants. I will try to contact him for more info. regards francisco |

Cool thanks man. Yeah I heard they might even have some at wal-mart. But I live across the street from a home depot so I will go there tonight. |

My kids got some in their trick-or-treat bags! I think they came from Walmart. Very cool. I hope we don't kill em. I have a black thumb with plants! |

Dang! I want to go trick-or-treating in *your* neighborhood, BugMom!
Actually, flytraps should be dormant this time of year (just bulbs). I don't know if it's a good idea to force them indoors or not. I've bought a lot of carnivores and other rare exotic plants in the past from Black Jungle Supply (www.blackjungle.com) -- I would recommend them if you want to mail-order stuff. Oh, I see they have some Venus Flytrap care info online, too: http://www.blackjungle.com/venusflytrapfaq.html |

Yeah. Too bad they didn't give out T's instead. The plants are still doing good. Thanks for the link. I want to try and be a good plant mom too, not just a good BugMom.

2 weeks ago I noticed a bunch at the 99 Store in Hollywood (on La Brea). They were looking a little dehydrated but a bargain at that price. |
