Wonderfully engaging video series, very informative!
A wonderfully engaging video series that is very informative! It gives practical instructions for keeping carnivorous plants and has a magnificent overview of many species available in the hobby! I ended up purchasing all 3 Volumes and have thoroughly enjoyed each. When I re-potted my Nepenthes and took cuttings for propagation I re-watched portions of Volume 3 several times. I could re-watch the species overviews many many times as they are so well done and do a great job of showing the diversity. A must watch for anyone interested in keeping carnivorous plants!

Why try? With this DVD you'll succeed!
Everybody knows about the Venus Flytrap but this DVD teaches you how to grow a REAL carnivorous plant!Sundews are amongst my favorite carnivorous plants because they really do catch a lot of prey. The Flytrap is fun to watch move so quickly but these plants are more effective in removing those pesky little nats and things that get in your face. Oh, and they move too (just not as quickly)! They are beautiful and now, with this DVD, they are easy to grow.I've tried growing butterworts in the past but didn't have much success. However, now I have this DVD so I know I can succeed at growing them. I think it's time to try a butterwort again -- just because this DVD makes growing these plants easy.I have a "green thumb" but carnivores were still difficult to grow. Watching the DVD is engaging and entertaining and educational. It was difficult giving up on everything I thought I knew about growing these plants. But I did as told. Now, someone's telling me the right things to do and my plants are healthy and even produce blooms!
