Eats ALL the gnats
Arrived in good conditions, seems to have adapted to my south windowsill quite well, and has an amazing sheen to it when it's healthy and dewy. I got a couple butterworts to see if they'd make an impact on the fungus gnats that habitate my other plants, and within a few days there was barely a square millimeter without gnats stuck to it. I was concerned this would be akin to over-fertilizing it, but it seems to have taken the feast in stride. A vibrant plant that thrives, I recommend it.
