Fragrant S. Flava
 
Was looking for the source of a faint foul smell in my garden and I decided to smell all my Sarracenia. Sounds stupid but true. And so surprised when it's Flava's turn, it's fragrant! Anyone tried b4?

p/s: Still can't find the source of the faint foul smell after smelling all my Sarracenia :~

i think the foul smell is from your media.........pick up the pots and you will see slime underneath.....your pots are standing in the water right?:closedeyes:

Yup, there's one smell from the medium. The smell I look for is another type of rotting smell. My cats must have hid / dropped their hunted games somewhere near my green house.

Hmm, this gives me another new idea. Have breakfast in my garden and get free honey from the sarras on my toasted bread. Hahaha. Using a newly opened pitcher, of course!

Oh glad you did. Otherwise I might thought my Flava got 'sth' invisible hidden inside

Hahaha....:biggrin:
but the problem is,if i sniff it really close to the Flava i can't smell anything from the plant.If i put it about 10cm away from my nose,then i can smell it again.so....still not 100% sure that the smell is from the Flava.

I get the smell when I place my nose real close to the opening. Hmmm...

Smelling my flava again. Oh, fragrant smell as usual. And found the skeleton of rat just beside my greenhouse. That explains the foul smell in the first place.
