[Mark Wilson]

Hi all,
I am very intersted in aquiring a few P.vulgaris to grow and would like to know others experiances with growing them.
Thank you,

I can't send you any (border don't ya know) but I grow the species-
It's EASY to maintain in and of itself- takes a bit drier conditions than Drosera through the summer, likes a little shade- the biggest rosettes I get seem to be in the shade of Sarracenia pitchers, ones with direct sun seem to stay smaller
Their #1 enemy, in my bog garden, has been slugs and snails, so that would be my only caution, do whatever you can think of to keep those away and you'll be fine- good luck on acquiring some!
