What is needed is a plastic storage box, a drill, sphagnum peat moss, distilled or rain water, and your favorite North American species of carnivorous plants. You simply drill a couple of holes on the side of the container, a couple inches from the bottom. Fill it up with sphagnum peat moss.
I've noticed that it is best to have the moss curve above the rim of the container as to prevent leaves, or pine needles from settling on the plants. Smaller species like some sundews or butterworts would get covered up. Also, the rim can block sunlight, stunting the growth of these delicate plants.
