These beautiful Australian miniatures are very easy to grow, provided they are given the right conditions.  Below are some photos of plants which I have grown 5" from fluorescent lights.  Growing medium: peat-sand-perlite-milled sphagnum.  Photoperiod 11-14 hours.  Watering: distilled water, moist-slightly wet.  Humidity: 100% (they would probably grow better in lower humidity).  Temperatures - night:  50F-65F, day: up to 85F.  Although I grow them this way, these plants should be tolerable of a wider range of conditions.

I wish to thank my friend Allen Lowrie, author of Carnivorous Plants of Australia volumes 1, 2 and 3 for the outstanding work he has done studying these and other Australian carnivorous plants.  Thanks Allen!
