Hello everyone!
I am just getting started with carnivorous plants, and wanted to share my new Cephalotus Follicularis with you. I am considering building a terrarium for it, but I haven't a clue where to begin. I would be extremely grateful for any info, advice or input.
The gentleman I purchased it from had been growning it in a terrarium. There is a root growing out of the bottom of the pot, and was told that it would need repotted. Any repoitting tips would also be appreciated.
This is such a wonderful plant, and I want to do everything I can to help it thrive, but I lack terrarium specific skills and want to be certain I repot it correctly. Thanks for taking the time to help a newbie!
Here are links to some pictures of the plant:
