transplanting sundews & pitcher plants
my sundews, flytraps & pitcher plants are outgrowing the pots they came
in. i'd like to transplant them into a terrarium so i can install a growlight & keep the humidity up. currently they're on my kitchen windowsill, which has good light for them but is right over the propane tank & water heater vent. that can't be good for them. what soil mix should i use for a terrarium? how deep should it be? once established in the terrarium should i arrange for a winter dormancy period? my round leaved sundew (drosera rotundifolia) is the only one that has ever gone dormant, apparently being more day length sensitive that the rest of my collection. it just broke dormancy about 3 weeks ago. is there a group for carniverous plant fans? lee -- It is paradoxical that many educators and parents still differentiate between a time for learning and a time for play without seeing the vital connection between them. -Leo Buscaglia, author (1924-1998) |
