Springtime is in the air...

[dewy]

Here are a few pictures of my VFT starting to take off. They did quite well this year considering the wet winter we had.

Bigmouth VFT in 12" pot.

Here is last year after repotting and division.

Now here is the same pot 1 year later.

Here is my pot of typical VFT, growth seen over 1 year.

Last year

This year

Mini bog with VFT Akai Ryu, S. purpurea and D. filiformis (and baby D. filiformia var. trayci)

S. oreophila is now finally starting to grow well, I didn't think it would make it through the winter as it was very unhealthy and didn't look good, but now it has 5 growth points and is growing the best it ever has, go figure

Finally, a vft seedling.

Very nice progression. They look so vigorous.

Woah, that's a very striking S. purpurea... I don't think I've seen many with pink pitchers. Very cool minibogs!
