    The flowers are coming

    I thought I'd post a few pictures of some of my developing flower buds. I was excited when I saw the first flower bud appear a few weeks ago, but now there are two! I didn't think the plant was large enough even for one. I just discovered this today. It's the first time I've gotten flowers...

    Sarracenia Seeds

    Hi all forum members, I really appreciate all the helps I got in this forum. So I decided to give away some extra Sarracenia seeds (30+, harvested early this month) that my friend gave me. Quite sure these are S.leucophylla seeds, but could possibly be mixed with other seeds. Just follow this...

    Skip stratification?

    Hi, I recently got some sarracenia seeds from a friend who has a bog tub in his backyard. He collected those seeds remained in the old flower about 5 days ago, which means they've spent their time outside through the whole winter. I'm wondering if I still have to put them in the fridge? can I...

    bog garden box.

    I've been thinking about creating a bog garden, but I don't really want to dig a gigantic ditch in my backyard. I was thinking about building a garden box instead. Would this work with most Sarracenia and vft's. I'm in central Ohio. Thanks.

    Will broken sarracenia buds come back?

    I have about five sarracenias that I have had for a few years but this season I wanted to add two more to the family. I got a Leah Wilkerson and a Reptilian Rose. Both arrived today with healthy rhizomes (medium sized) but unfortunately both flower stalks broke off during transit. They were only...

    What is this?

    Is this Sarracenia Purpurea ssp. Purpurea or Purpurea ssp. Venosa or Sarracenia Rosea? Any tips for this species of Sarracenia? Can I use osmocote for it? As I am living in a tropical region, is it possible for me to let it undergo dormancy in the fridge?

    Hi everyone, First of all, I'm new here and it is sooooo awesome to become a member of this forum.

    Sarracenia purpura fall colors

    Good afternoon, terraforums. I obtained an S. Purpura last summer and in fall it turned bright red/purple. It had some purple veining in the summer, but this was solid red. Anyone else seen this in S. Purpura? Are there any other sarrs that exhibit this "fall color"? Thanks.

    Aphid infestation?

    Looks like one of my Sarracenia pots has been hit with an aphid infestation, but before I do anything I'd just like to confirm that it is aphids, and also ask about recommended treatments. First time encountering them. Pot is also host to some D. capensis and VFTs, but keeping the Sarras is...

    Hey guys, I've been spotty being on in this last year. So I've really been focused on temperate sarracenia and sundews the last 8 years, but I've been getting the itch to explore more nepenthes besides my old Ventrata (which was labeled as alata when I bought it). I was on ebay today looking at...
