I have recently received a collection of insectivores from a friend. They include five venus fly traps, three pitcher plants, and five butterworts. They all seem to be doing well in their respective pots but I would like to transfer them all to a terrarium (1.5'x4') with possibly some other plants in order to make a "beastly plants" garden. I read the posting on creating a terrarium but I would like to know if there is anything I should know before placing the plants together. Do different varieties of insectivores damage each other? Any special precautions? Any suggestions on other plants to add to the terrarium? I would appreciate any help of this topic.

As long as the requirements of these are the same, they should do fine together. If you still aren't sure, you could do a google search on each individual plant. Try using the botanical names as you should get more info that way.
