I would like to know the best way to care for carnivorous plants. From what I have read, it seems like MOST of them like a non-fertile soil that is very wet. They can even be grown in ponds! I would love to have a separate pond just for them. If I were to do that, what would be the best way to construct it?

If I wanted to have a carnivorous plant garden without a pond, how could I go about it?

Thanks for any input.

I want to build a 5000 gallon pond using cement, but I am kind of having trouble finding resources on how to do this.

I would like to know how to install an externail pump, and how do I do the drain???

How do I put the plumbing in? Would this be buildt pretty similar to a pool?

What has to be done to the cement to make it safe for fish?

Would making it out of cement be cheaper than liner?

There are no rocks in FL, so we are going to have a company come out and "make" the rocks for us. They do a FABULOUS job sculpting rocks from rebar and cement. I would have to have a cement pool in order to have them do this, though. So that is why it needs to be out of cement.

If you can find ANY resources for me on how to do any of this, Id be eternally greatful! Im so excited to get my pond going!!!!

I have on more that one occastion (okay, it was 3) unintentionally murdered the most beautiful and healthy ferns. It all started when I was given a fern as a house warming gift. Within 2 weeks, there were tiny leaves scattered all around the floor. I replaced it right away and I killed that one too. I gave up on ferns for a while. Thinking that I'm older and more responsible now (it's been 10 yrs) I figured I'd give it another go. Well, its been 2 weeks and the fern is starting to show some signs of distress!

PLEASE, SOMEONE. SPELL IT OUT FOR ME. WHAT IS THE PROPER WAY TO CARE FOR A FERN?

I see many in bloom right now.I always have the birds eating the seeds before they fully germinate--and they have even got to transplanted seedlings also!
