MrsD Garden: Update

When my Mom bought me my very first plant, Kalachuchi (Name: Theon), I got addicted to planting ever since. I tried my luck to plant a few edible, flower bearing and display plants. I also tried planting from seeds, fully grown and straight from vegetable seeds (I just dried it). And because of my astonishment that I grew several plants without drowning them or drying them, I became enthusiastic to brag about my gardening skills to my family and friends. I even influenced some of my friends to plant! My family on the other hand, gave me some of their plants.

Last April, my Basil, Green bell pepper and Milflores plant died because I didn't water them for a week due to my recent hospitalization. I tried to revive my Basil because its roots is still alive but I ran out of patience to wait. #sad

Now, my little garden is growing. I have my first baby, Theon (Kalachuchi), Morning Glory, Okra, Snake Plant, Welcome plant, two cactus and succulents.

Then I came across this blog where she talks about Carnivorous plants and where to get them. I visited their site Pitcher Plant Farm. The Pitcher Plant Farm was located at Malaybalay, Bukidnon - owned by a German, Mr. Volker Heinrich. He specializes in growing different kinds of carnivorous plants - Pitcher plants, Sundews, Butterworth, Bladderworth, Stylidium and the famous Venus Flytrap.


 When I saw the Venus Flytrap, I felt the connection! HAHAHA! I fell in love with it instantly!!! Its so beautiful and wild. So vicious but too pretty. Okay my excitement can't get enough of me! I clicked buy and checked out! Yey!!! I have an exotic plant coming in next week :)

And as I read how to grow this beauty, it states that it is very delicate and not easy to grow so wish me luck!
