So I'm just wondering if my rhizome's on my Sarr's are too far out of the ground. Should they be completely covered so that the new pitchers actually have to emerge out of the ground, or should the top of the rhizome be visible above ground? Thanks for any replies!!!
I left my sarr rhizomes poking a little out of the peat/perlite mixture then topped dressed the pot with lfs so that they're completely covered by not all by denser peat/perlite mixture.
I had the rhizome of my Sarr covered, and it grew slowly, when I uncovered it, it grew fast! Sarracenia's like getting light on the top part of their rhizomes!
i even have some where only the roots are in the soil, the rhizome itself is just sitting on top.
mine formed tiny spindly pitchers and not many of them when buried, now its a night and day difference in growth.
