I'll probably be a pest with questions and hope you'll indulge me.
I'm starting into this new area of gardening with sarracenia. I've gardened with terrestrial plants all my adult life, gotten into water gardening in the last decade (initially through planted freshwater aquaria), and now am fascinated with carnivorous plants. It seemed that with my geographic location (central Arkansas, zone 7b), sarracenia would be the easiest way to go.
I have a small lot, mostly shaded and not enough space for an in-ground bog that has enough sun, so the container that I can move around to get the right amount of sun seemed to be the way to go. I understand that I probably will have to protect it this winter.
But I'm cruising the forum and seeing all the trays with individually potted sarracenia, and wondering...
Do all of you have greenhouses? How do you overwinter those individual pots?
