What are the next steps here for this situation?

I've recently got an Adelae and just saw that two or three stowaways grew in the pot. One behind the name tag, two(?) directly at my Adelae's stem/ heart.

I don't want them to overrun my Adelae, but I think they are too tiny to safely transfer them?

What do I do?

Sundews Flowering, cut or go to seed?

My Cape, Great, and ?cup sundews are all going to flower, and it’s only early spring, PNW, keeping indoors. Everyone looks healthy enough to last through it, but is it better to cut?

Is this normal for my Drosera?

It's been growing these for a couple months. They are about 3ft tall and I haven't seen sticky leaves since it started growing these.

Am I doing something wrong?

Howdy, I was hoping I could get a bit of assistance with my new baby. I bought her 4 days ago.

I’m very new to having carnivorous plants. This my first ever Ping, her name is “sticky” (the name is a work in progress). I got this baby to hopefully help with the fungus gnats and little flies for the season, but she doesn’t seem to be catching any of these pests.

I read up on them and I think I am doing everything right in terms of care. I keep the soil moist, (not waterlogged) I keep a plastic cup over it to keep it humid. And I read that these plants like bright indirect light so I’ve been doing that too. But with all that being said there doesn’t seem to be any of the droplets/fluid on the leaves in order to catch pest.

What am I doing wrong? I want to take of my baby and give her everything she needs to be happy and healthy.

The ant that you see on the leaf, I put there after killing it.

Any advice is greatly appreciated, thank you in advance.

Need advice

Does it need to be trimmed or is that even recommended. I haven't had any new pitchers for quite some time and when it does look it it's about to grow some they dry out. The pitchers I do have Hove been in there for a while and look like they are drying up a little bit. Should I repot it?

Glad with the results, but can use opinions!

Is this another fly trap growing?

Was watering my fly traps when I noticed this growth out of the bottom. I’m thinking it’s another fly trap. This plant did flower about a year or two ago but I thought I collected all the seeds

My Growlight Fell Down On My Plant

Hey everyone, I just wanted to ask you guys if you see any chance of my plant surviving this damage.

My Growlight slid down from where I mounted it and burned the plant for some hours.

The pictures are from 2 days after the accident.

Thanks in advance!

Avdice for a Pinguicula esseriana

Hey guys, Im kinda new to this whole reddit thing but I had a friend randomly give me a plant and said it would be a fantastic office plant.. well shortly after it started curling up and from what research I could do, I am thinking it needs more light! Is there any more advice you guys could give on taking care of this plant?

My drosera spatulata is getting ready to flower

My Drosera is getting ready to flower, so I took the opportunity to shoot it with my new macro lens. I couldn't quite get the dew on the spiral area perfectly in focus but I'm still pleased with the result.

Last time I had flower stalks it got buds but grew too tall/close to my light before it could flower, and had to be cut. Hoping I don't have the same problem this time.

Edit: grammar

My Pitcher plant is growing these slim pitchers

I’m not sure if I’m doing something wrong, I’m not sure if they need to be closer to my grow light or something else but I want it to grow wider pitchers

Best enclosure for carnivorous garden

I currently have a butterwort, but considering getting other carnivorous plants. What carnivorous plants would pair well with my current butterwort? And what is the best setup (terrarium, some sort of indoor garden setup with UV light, etc.). Does something like a hydroponic system work?

Please say if this is root rot

They’re on top of a dragon stone that is not waking water at all and it’s only getting moisture from a wicking rope and even That is doing bad. I have pumice arriving in 3 days. The roots arrived white but now look like this after a week. They are on top of fluval stratum on the rope outside morning facing sun only till 11 pm Florida.
