while I was potting up my psittacina, I accidently pulled off a tiny division. This division has no roots so I put rooting hormone and potted it up... my question is, should I put this small division under grow lights? Or should I put it in my bog where sarracenia seem to thrive.
So, last fall, as I was getting ready to mulch my dormant outdoor CPs for the winter, I found several VFT seedlings in amongst the LFS in the pot, which was a very pleasant surprise for me, as I thought that I had collected all of the seed...
I thought it might be fun to try my hand at growing...
I purchased the following plant a few weeks ago. The nursery gets it's plants from a local grower, but they do the labels themselves. They sell all Sarracenia as "Sarracenia Sp." so it's tough sometimes to know the exact species you're getting.
Clearly it's a psittacina hybrid, at least that's...
Hello all.
I am about a little over a year into this hobby. It all started with a lowly Dionaea in a death cube.
One day as I was wandering the local hardware store I came across their rack of doomed CP's, on a whim I purchased a nice looking VFT. Being the obsessive researcher I am I...

I thought I was an experienced grower, and I am.
But I learned I wasn't as experienced as I thought previously.
I lost around 99% of my temperate carnivores this last winter due to root rot. :-(
To prevent their soil from being waterlogged during dormancy, I punched a drainage hole in the side...
