Venus Fly Trap - July 13th, 2005 at 01:15 AM
Hi everyone.
I am new to the site and hope this will help me grow to be a better gardener.
I have just received my first Venus Fly Trap plant as a gift on Wednesday last week. It was looking good until Sunday. Sunday I notices one of the traps died. I have not seen any traps eat anything yet. I thought it might need food and put a bit in each trap. (I did read that hamburger is bad.) I could not get any of them to close. Why is it dying? Why won't any traps close? What should I be doing or not doing?
Any advise would be great because I want it to thrive.
Thanks
