| SO it snowed and rained in the bay area for (so far) 2 - 3 days. The cat liter box that I have my CP’s in was full to the brim (with the top inch of a layer being all ice) yesterday when I went to admire my CPS. I dumped a lot of the water so it’d only be an inch or so of water. My VFT seems fine and so do my Serracenias. However, my red leaf drosera capensis and regular drosera capensis which before the rain were doing amazing (one was even putting up a flower stalk) now look kinda junky. I think it is because there was too much water. Does it look like these plants will make it?
This is the plant on 10/21/09
And (I know there is kind of a date difference) here it is now after (/still during the rain)

| Get the Capensis INSIDE in a sunny window. Not sure if they'll make it if they froze even a little. |

| Capensis is a tropical plant. It should NOT be treated as a temperate. |
