In this class, you’ll learn how to create a hauntingly beautiful, self-sustaining ecosystem filled with Venus flytraps, pitcher plants, and sundews, plants that lure, trap, and devour their prey in the most sinisterly fascinating ways.
We’ll guide you through selecting the right soil, water, and plants to ensure your bog thrives. Whether you want a tabletop terror or a miniature swamp straight out of a gothic fairytale, you’ll leave with a living, breathing (and feeding) masterpiece.
