Ah, I grew up in coastal NC and that is were the venus flytrap grows natural (the only place!) so have grown up with carnivorous plants. Honestly? I have seen very good ones at both Lowes and Home Depot. They are easy to care for and like a rich, peaty soil, partial sun to sun. Fun little buggers, I love the way the sundew looks.
