Carnivorous plants are 80% of my house plant hobby! This was really fun to watch. You can learn a lot about any subject but real learning begins in practice. I think you did a great job and your new little babies will be so happy! 🌿♥️
Hi Harli, the design looks amazing. What I'd have done differently is putting a fine mesh net to contain the soil on the side then cover it with the pebbles. That would add stability to your design and prevent a bit the soil spillage :)
I love all of your content, but I especially love watching you tackle these projects! I admire how you go for it, rather than agonizing over every little detail. You are definitely an inspiration to me! 💕 PS, I like it better on the little side table because it deserves it's own space! It's so beautiful!
It definitely deserves its own spotlight! Nice job Harli… I heard a hack somewhere to to drain water from containers that don’t have drainage! I had a few clear vases that I use to grow plants in and when I overwater,I put in a tampon in and it absorbs the excess water,sometimes I would use a few,just bought really cheap tampons for my terrariums! It does work,believe me! 😂😂
You did a fantastic job! I think the arrangement of the pings/sundews, the light you used, and spot you chose most recently is perfect!!! This is quality content!
I don't know if you've ever watched Serpa Design, but he does AMAZING terrariums/paludariums/etc and goes through his whole process. I don't think he's ever done carnivorous plants, but it could give some great inspiration
It looks like a luscious chocolate cake with beautiful edible flowers!!😂. Very well done! Lets us know if it works for gnats and flies!! Maybe mosquitos, too?! 👍❤️👏
Omg! I’m soooo excited about this project! I’ve been really wanting to try my hand at carnivorous plants. Please post updates! Also - I’m loving your recent content! You seem a lot more comfortable and confident - I adore when you’re your authentic self! ❤❤❤
It would talk a complete restart but try going in with silicone to keep the rocks sturdy and keep dirt away, a small pump wold keep the water from going stagnant aswell
Oh god, I hope it's not too late to tell you this lol. Pinguicula pirouette is NOT a bog plant! They like foliar moisture as long as it dries quickly, that's how I water mine. Several times, I have tried to grow one in a terrarium, and it just melts in a few weeks. My mature mother plant does amazing in a simple round fish bowl, without any cover, with limestone and vermiculite, where the leaves and tiny roots can remain dry. This species also gets HUGE! Mine is about 6 inches around (after a year!), and has divided several times after flowering over the Winter. They seem to totally transform into light green, and my seller swears it's a matter of brighter light, so you really have to experiment there. There's almost no information about the specific care for this "complex" hybrid, but the parent plants come from Southern and South Eastern Mexico, if that helps you.
yeah, I agree, I was more worried about when they go dormant and how that will do with the sundews that love water. I don't want her to kill them since they are so beautiful and expensive
I've found that they seem to thrive on pumice, even when dormant. Can always pull back watering when necessary. Worse case, might need to move up the ones in the lower soil to the rocks and go with a few more Sundews/Utricularia where it's more boggy. Sphagnum moss would also be an eye catcher.
@@TyrantII "Thirsty succulent" comes to mind, for P. pirouette. They seem to come from an environment that has alternating humid and dry conditions, like a rocky desert or high mountains. I'm keeping some babies in much brighter but dryer conditions than the mother plant, which seems to dramatically affect the size because the babies remain tiny and compact after months.
Carnivorous plants were the first ones I got back in like 2004 high school. I only have pinguicula now since they're a bit too high maintenance for Colorado... Especially sarracenia and nepenthes. It looks fantastic! Pings are my favorite genus. Their flowers are cute.
California Carnivores has (or had) a video or maybe an article of a pinguicula tank on how to set up Pings are a lot of fun!!! My next replant of my BiOrb is going to be full of pings! I just love them
I can’t remember how long it’s been since I filmed this video, but the bog is still doing really well & things have rooted/are growing. So far, so good!
I have a bog garden outdoors. I love how you designed this and carnivorous plants you picked are so beautiful:) I also feel like you would enjoy making aquascapes with aquatic plants that’s my second hobby :)
Absolutely love carnivorous plants! You are going to have fun with those! The Pinguicula Kondoi has the smallest cutest flower! Don’t worry about keeping the water clean, most carnivorous plants live in boggy conditions, others live on rocks or hillsides. I think just having it clean is more for our aesthetics but they will be just fine. I have a pretty extensive ping collection, I’m hooked.
I like it as the centerpiece on that table. There is so much going on in there, that you really need to appreciate it by itself. The light absolutely makes it!
“Let’s do this together kinda thing” Harli G I learned how to propagate and care for a few of my plants from your videos. Thank for sharing your knowledge and enthusiasm for plants!These plants are so pretty and bring a natural plant landscape into your home which is totally cool. I live in an apartment complex and have a very small patio. This year I’m going to put some plants, flowers, and possibly some vegetable containers. I guess a micro version of what I hope to have if I can have my own home one day. (Scratch that last part. WHEN I get my own home)😊Directly near my patio is a downspout tube VERY close to the ground and I wouldn’t be able to use even a small bucket but I’m certainly going to brainstorm a way to try and collect the water for my plants. I’m glad that you mentioned that because I was thinking, “Oh my! What have I been doing?! Giving my plants tap water!”😮 Well, I guess that’s why we’re all here. To teach, create, learn, and GROW. Sincerely, Stefanie
I thoroughly enjoyed watching this project. It’s absolutely precious, and I love the end set up with its own table and light. A show-stopper. Can’t wait to see how it does! ❤
This is amazing!!! I’d maybe let the water wick up/evaporate on its own and add more water after it settles instead of trying to strain it? Keep up these cool ideas! You’ve inspired me so much with this and the mantises!
Ooooo 👀😍 I LOVE this, Harli!! I want to try this set up in my indoor greenhouse. It would be so much prettier than yellow sticky traps 🤣 thanks for the great content & inspiration, yet again! 💜
What a cool idea! I kinda want to try some carnivorous plants to live in my kitchen next to the fruit bowl but it always seemed like too much of a hassle, maybe ill give it a try! Also, this is random, but in your outro sound of the people applauding, there is one loud dude`s voice going YEAH! ALRIGHT! like his team just won the game, and it honestly makes me laugh ever time I hear it at the end of a plant care video. Like he`s so excited for you, and all of us, and our plants, its wholesome AF! YEAH! PHOTOSYNTHESIS! Thanks for another great video!
Definitely right about plants and creativity! Some moss might be a nice addition to help keep a good balance and prevent smells in those type of soil conditions :)
Lol! God bless you Harli! That thrifter vase ended up costing quite a bit..😁 What self respecting planty parent doesn't want a bug eating bog?!! So fun! Best wishes🥰🌱
Very cool! I hadn’t heard of many of these little plants. I’ve been looking into creating an outdoor bog either to recycle gray water or grow acid-loving plants, or both!
Love it! I got my adorable drosera intermedia because of your recommendation for Hunter Flytraps. I was supposed to just be buying moss 😅 oopsies! Looking forward to an update on this one.
Love love the arrangement! I’d just be so scared to move it cause it looks so heavy and it’s glass 😅 I broke a vase full of marbles one time and it was NOT pretty I still find glass sometimes 🤣
Successfully recreated a bog from the Isle of Arran last year and I have Scottish sphagnum moss in my jar terrarium with peat, and even gave it for the drainage layer a volcanic rock mix (lava rock+ granite) and a terrarium mesh to make sure the pear and moss doesn't go into the drainage layer, the carnivorous plants I added was Drosera rotundifilia and Drosera anglica I grew from seeds. Edit: Its thriving and doesn't need any thing apart from sunlight.
Really cool project I look forward to updates! I thought of getting some carnivorous plants for pest control too, my biggest worry is that it's not that warm and humid where I live and I think they would likely die in the winter. You definitely make it look a lot more fun that what I had in mind personally ^^ Almost like building a terrarium. I have this long term dream of building a fully sealed vivarium/aquarium/terrarium that develops its own ecosystem society over the years along with own climate. Should definitely add carnivorous plants in it, along with some frogs ^^ Should keep all the pests population down while keeping the plants and frogs fed :3
Also I think you might want to use sphagnum moss inside the soil for a similar project it will hold more moisture than pure coco, it will acidify the roots which I believe orchids and carnivorous plants enjoy, and it will help hold it in shape too. Might want to also add a little bit of cobalt sand and azomite to feed all the mineral micronutrients these rare plants thrive on.
Just letting you know that regardless of the climate, carnivorous plants need a rest period in the winter. It’s essential for their health. The whole plant will die off except for the roots from what I understand. I don’t own any but I’ve heard a lot of advice from avid growers and keep hearing these things over and over: -No nutrients in the soil. -Rain water or distilled water only (minerals will harm them) -they need to rest in the winter.
i love pings!!!!! i bought a ceramic ping pot from understorylabyrinth I potted the baby pings in it! also, had to repot my florian that grew from a leaf cutting!!
It's funny, if you weren't a plant person you really wouldn't see the joy in these activities.
Literally my partner sitting next to me. "Okay I'm out" "noooo watch with me!" 😂
Im not a plant person, but i really enjoy the estetics and the art.
Love watching people build aquariums and those closed eco systems in a bottle.
Carnivorous plants are 80% of my house plant hobby! This was really fun to watch. You can learn a lot about any subject but real learning begins in practice. I think you did a great job and your new little babies will be so happy! 🌿♥️

I love how excited you get when doing new projects. You are so fun to watch.
I love pings! It was so fun to watch you make a little carnivorous plant bog :) Would love updates on your experience!
I kind of see those types of plants like pets which is why they are so cute
They're pretty cool,I'm very intrigued, I'm going to keep up with what you do,while coming up with some of my ideas 💡
The colors of these plants are so pretty. I'm so excited to see how it turns out

I loved this so much! Would love to see more projects like this on your channel!
I like it but I believe you needed to maybe add some more peat moss,because it will grow a small layer of moss,throughout the bog,but still ❤ it.
Hey, thanks a lot ,I try to get it all down,maybe another hundred hours of Utube, LOL, thanks again
Girl you posted this at like 10 at night and I still clicked so fast!😂
Appreciate you ❤
Omg! I’m soooo excited about this project! I’ve been really wanting to try my hand at carnivorous plants. Please post updates! Also - I’m loving your recent content! You seem a lot more comfortable and confident - I adore when you’re your authentic self! ❤❤❤
I loved this! I love it by itself with the light, looks really good 🥰🥰 keep us posted on the growth
Harli, this is so cool! I love when you're excited about something. It's so enjoyable to watch, and I really like the new editing. Very relaxing!
Your carnivorous plant arrangement is awesome! Looking forward to seeing its evolution!
So cool! I am about to build my first one, but in a reptile tank! Loved the light, really made it come together.
It would talk a complete restart but try going in with silicone to keep the rocks sturdy and keep dirt away, a small pump wold keep the water from going stagnant aswell
I genuinely love your videos and plant collections❤ your channel is my new netflix. 😊 I learn so much from your videos.
Oh god, I hope it's not too late to tell you this lol.

Hiya,
It looks awesome but most of them love to be outdoors where they can get lots of sun and bugs.
I hope it goes amazeballs, thanks for the vid ☺👍👍
California Carnivores has (or had) a video or maybe an article of a pinguicula tank on how to set up
Pings are a lot of fun!!! My next replant of my BiOrb is going to be full of pings! I just love them
How fun and adventurous of you! Looking forward to updates. This was interesting to watch.
I love your style you literally make me HAPPY!
Dude! When you flicked on that little spot light on it, my jaw dropped. So. Freaking. Cute.
I almost choked on my cider. "I don't know sh..", dangit, I wanted a tutorial. 🤣
I can’t remember how long it’s been since I filmed this video, but the bog is still doing really well & things have rooted/are growing. So far, so good!
I like both locations! The dresser is cool with varying colors but the standalone spot is very elegant!
I definitely like it on its own little pedestal. Makes it feel more special. And it looks amazing.
definitely going to need an update in a couple months 🥹
Looks great!! I’ve never taken care of carnivorous plant but have been looking into it. Thanks for sharing!
I have a bog garden outdoors. I love how you designed this and carnivorous plants you picked are so beautiful:) I also feel like you would enjoy making aquascapes with aquatic plants that’s my second hobby :)
I’m going on a trip this week, but when I get home I’ve got all the supplies ready to set up a tank 🙌
@@HarliG where did you get the carnivorous plants?
@@HarliG so exciting! I started with one aquarium and now I have 8 haha you’ll love the hobby :)
Absolutely love carnivorous plants! You are going to have fun with those! The Pinguicula Kondoi has the smallest cutest flower!

I absolutely love it! I think it looks perfect on the table with the lamp ❤
This is awesome!!! can’t wait to see how it does. Also, a “turkey baster” has become very helpful with my plant chores 🤣🤣🤣
I've already been feeling witchy fairy crafty foragy planty. I've been now inspired to bog.
I love that! Looks amazing on that lil table! 🥰
Is there gonna be an update?
Girl yes I just started collecting them and I’m obsessed ❤🌸 they are so fun 🌸
Both look good, but I love the dresser, it draws the eye to a focal point and adds extra texture. 😍😍 Super fun. 💚
What a great project! I love your creations!🎉🎉🎉🎉
I’m so intrigued by these! Def excited for the updates
seriously the day before this came out, I was thinking I wanted to try a carnivorous terrarium! Perfect timing :)
What a cool idea! I kinda want to try some carnivorous plants to live in my kitchen next to the fruit bowl but it always seemed like too much of a hassle, maybe ill give it a try!

First! Commenter, that is. 😁 But yay, I've been waiting for the long Saturday upload today. 💚
Hope you enjoyed it!
I was just on their website this morning. Lol now it’s a sign for me to go ahead and purchase the plants🤣 looks Great🌟
I'm not really into carnivorous plants but it was a nice and fun video to watch ! I'm excited to see them grow!! 😊
Turkey baster to get rid of water?
Very adorable, what a great way to display them and catch a few bugs. 😊
You did an amazing job with this! ❤️❤️❤️
“Oh No!!… oh that’s not bad🙂” when u poured the water into the bowl that was so funny
Eeeek!!!!! It's so beautiful. 😍 I love the varieties you chose. I can't wait to see its progress.
I told you about my carnivorous plants, but you inspired me now to do this too!🤩
I’m so excited to see!!!
It actually turned out great. I love it in the last position. Thanks for sharing!
I love you bog you are very creative. What nursery do you use? The plants are really stunning.
Wow, you are rich! Curious Plant plants are not cheap!
Harli you are so funny. Love it when you mess up no big deal just move on 😊
HOLY HELL THIS IS SO COOL. keep updating us on how they do! and if you had a good experience with the seller pls share!
Very cool! I hadn’t heard of many of these little plants.
I’ve been looking into creating an outdoor bog either to recycle gray water or grow acid-loving plants, or both!
I love the spot you chose for it! It’s super cute!
I'm seriously in love with the way this turned out.❤❤❤
So cool!!! I love where you placed it, it feels like it’s an art piece! Would horticultural charcoal help with the smell?
I would love to know we’re u ordered the plants from.
Curious plant 😊
Give us an update later in the year. I have some ordered. Thanks for this content.
Love it! I got my adorable drosera intermedia because of your recommendation for Hunter Flytraps. I was supposed to just be buying moss 😅 oopsies! Looking forward to an update on this one.
that turned out awesome and now I want some Pinguiculas in my collection they look very nice.
That’s what keeps you real and me coming back 😊
Where do you get your carnivorous plants - use to collect. Best source then and now Peter D'Amato book Savage Garden from California Carnivores.
Love love the arrangement! I’d just be so scared to move it cause it looks so heavy and it’s glass 😅 I broke a vase full of marbles one time and it was NOT pretty I still find glass sometimes 🤣
Definitely on the table ❤
This is such a great idea!!!!! Love it!!
Garlic, this amazing creation deserves its own special place as a focal point.
Harli 😂 my computer has a mind of its own!
😭💀
I like it’s final home. I can’t wait for the updates!
Successfully recreated a bog from the Isle of Arran last year and I have Scottish sphagnum moss in my jar terrarium with peat, and even gave it for the drainage layer a volcanic rock mix (lava rock+ granite) and a terrarium mesh to make sure the pear and moss doesn't go into the drainage layer, the carnivorous plants I added was Drosera rotundifilia and Drosera anglica I grew from seeds.

Love this! I have 1 ping and i put it in a martini glass with spagnum. It had a couple babies so theyre in another glass
It's so cute! I'll have to try doing this sometime; I have my carnivores in these plastic bins from Target. I think you'll enjoy the Utricularia! :)
Beautiful 😊 love your enthusiasm!
They're so cute!
This was such a satisfying video to watch
Great job Harli 👏 ❤ I love your plants 🪴 on the table ❤
Is a beautiful project,great on its own ,just watch the kids
💚🌵🌱☘️💚
Like the second spot, more of a showcase. These plants are cool. Let us know how they do.
I love it! Can't wait to see how it works out. Best wishes! ♥

i love pings!!!!! i bought a ceramic ping pot from understorylabyrinth I potted the baby pings in it! also, had to repot my florian that grew from a leaf cutting!!
The shape of the bowl makes it look like a chocolate fudge cake 🤩🍫🎂
