    Just got this little guy situated. The glass is still dirty, but I don’t want to spray it down and overwater it.

    Is the sphere part functional or is it just design?

      It’s a cork sphere that just acts as the lid.

    Cute! Are there bugs in there/what are you doing about feeding it? I’d love to put some of my savage garden in a terrarium too, but I’m worried they’re not gonna get enough to eat…

      I’m thinking about just fertilizing it. But roving gnat swarms around the yard mean I should be able to reliably catch two or three in there every couple of weeks. We’ll see. This is my first carnivorous plant, so I’m researching and watching it closely.
