jpappy is correct. You should always start with an adult first, to learn the proper care for a carnivorous plant. From seeds, a VFT will take around 1.5-2 years to grow in nicely. With an adult plants you can see if what you are doing is working or not, whereas with seeds you do not know if they did not sprout, or if you killed them from improper care. Also along these lines, a cobra lily is one of the harder pitchers to grow.
Most CP's (VFT included) require a nutrient poor medium. The standard mix is a 1:1 ratio of peat moss and perlite/silica sand (the perlite has a tendency to float to the top, while the sand will not). Contrary to popular belief, VFT's do not require high humidity. One of the more common VFT is native to the Wilmington, NC area (on the coast). The venus flytrap kits you may find in stores are often referred to as death cubes by a lot of growers because the high humidity will actually kill the plant in the long run.
Another point to mention is that VFT's require a winter cycle. In nature the plants die back to the roots durring fall and winter to store energy to grow back from the roots every spring. If this condition is not met, your plants will not live more than a few years.
Long story short, get a plastic pot (unglazed ceramic pots will leech minerals into the medium over time and I'm still hesitant on glazed pots) about 6" deep or so will last a long while. Make sure to get an unfertilized peat moss, and mix it equally with either perlite or silica sand. Start with the a rhizome of a common flytrap/pitcher first until you feel comfortable with their needs. Once you have those mastered, then move onto the more decorative CP's. And one final note, you should not ever have to feed your CP. It is unnecessary, and if done too often can harm the plant. VFT's and pitcher plants don't have the ability to decide not to digest food (bugs), and getting extra nutrients can actually harm the plant in a similar fashion as using the wrong medium.
