Closeup of Sarracenia pitcher plant flower bud.

Same shot as the first picture, but farther away showing freshly trimmed Sarracenia leaves.

Same flower bud as already shown, but an even further picture showing more of the Sarracenia pitcher plant with freshly trimmed leaves.

Pinguicula (butterworts) and Sarracenia (pitcher plants) are having a spring flowering frenzy. This is Pinguicula moranensis sending up yet another flower stalk.

A close-up of a green, rosette-shaped butterwort plant with fleshy leaves, in a pot with soil and moss. A slender flower stalk emerges from the center, featuring a small bud at the top.

The flower stalks of carnivorous plants, especially the low rosetted species, are often very long in relation to the size of the rest of the plant. This is thought to enable pollinators to visit the flower without getting caught in the trap leaves. This species is Pinguicula moranensis.

A potted butterwort plant with a purple flower and green leaf rosettes is featured. Surrounding it are smaller pots with various plants and labels. Natural light filters in through a window in the background.

Cleaned up and moved the dormant Drosera paradoxa (sundew) into a new pot. It's in an open glass container until the ambient humidity in this room goes up. This one came out of dormancy mid going into late March last year (see link at https://layer8.space/@chillicampari/112169585969118118), but it can vary. As I am doing with a few other plants, I top dressed it with chopped fresh sphagnum moss that I keep in a jar.

Small Drosera Paradoxa in hibernation. The old traps have been trimmed off and it is in a fresh pot with a top dressing of sphagnum moss.

A pot of Drosera capensis along with a flower of a hitchhiking terrestrial bladderwort, probably Utricularia bisquamata. The flower is about a quarter of an inch across.

Close-up of a Drosera capensis sundew, featuring slender green leaves covered in dewdrop-like glandular hairs. A small white and yellow flower is visible amidst the green foliage. The background includes hints of other potted plants.

Moved this little drosera to the office due to annoying tiny bugs dive-bombing the monitor in the evening. It seems to be really enjoying this sunny afternoon.
