Question
what carnivorous plants will grow in a pond?  i live in so.cal and temperatures can reach 110 degrees in summer and below freezing at night in the winter. I have a bog, pond with turtles and pond with koi, which would be best for plants?

Answer
Hello Anke,

If I understand your question, you want to grow aquatic carnivorous plants in a pond?

There are a couple of species of carnivorous plants that could grow in a fresh water pond. Aquatic Bladderworts, called Ultricularia, and Aldrovanda. Both can grow floating in water, however; would also be eaten by your water creatures.
