...I thought I'd post something in the Sarracenia section. Along with my Flytraps, I have also pulled my truck load of Sarrs out of dormancy. I acquired quite a few from the Purpman last year (instant Sarracenia collection!). My only regret is that in the great furvour of potting them up, I did not label any, not a one (d'oh). I may need help later with ID's. As with my Flytraps, new growth is visible already in some of the Sarrs. Pics to follow soon. Happy Spring everybody!

...it's finally all gone! It has been Spring here for the past week. Last night was -2 but other than that they're calling for above zero nights and double digit positive days for all of next week! My plants are staying outside and I will bringing out the rest from the basement as well. Que sera sera, I've been waiting a long time for this!

Looks amazing! Is your potting medium 1:1 peat:perlite?

...thanks Sokkos! No, I don't use perlite in any of my mixes. This is my universal mix. 2/1, peat/sand, I use two grades of washed sand in my mix. First Spring with adult Sarracenia for me. Looking forward to the flowers.

I saw the big white specks in your pots and assumed perlite. It's my first spring with Sarracenia for me as well, but your's are much further ahead than mine! Can't wait to see the flowers!

...I don't know what the deal with my pics is. Some of you can see them, some of you can't. Sorry guys, I have no idea why.

I think Google pictures is weird with the permissions. I can't see them. Must be some way you can share them with everybody.
If you have a device without any Google sign in (Gmail, Google, chrome) look up your links and see if you can see them.

The pink ones usually smell good, too.
