fruiting and a new addition

The strawberries are coming in. A spider has taken up residence on them, which I left alone. The jalapeño plant has flowers and fruit coming in. It's very exciting, and even more so since the weather has just been so-so. I was worried that my plants wouldn't do well in our new apartment, where the weather is much cooler than the house, but I'm glad to see the sun is coming out. I don't think the jalapeños will be that spicy, but that's okay.

I moved the strawberries to another pot because the one that they were originally in was a little to shallow for them. Hopefully the transfer won't have an adverse effect on the plants. I also moved the basil plant with the strawberries because it was in the shadow of the squash and tomatoes. I considered moving the jalapeño as well, but it seemed more settled in than the basil was.

I have always wanted a carnivorous plant, but I bought one when I was a teenager and it died. I decided to pick one up from my favorite nursery and try again. I have done a little research (and found this site) on how to care for the venus fly trap, but am still a bit nervous. I'll do more research so I can do whatever I can to make sure it does well. One of the reasons I want one is because we have the cat litter garbage can on the balcony, which attracts flies. I'm hoping this little baby will keep the flies under control. The lady at the nursery said they also feed the traps spiders, so maybe I can catch one and feed my plant.
