I bought these species :
- N. Ventrata (this was my first one and came from garden center)
- N. Sanguinea
- N. Ventricosa "alba"
- N. xMaxima (some maxima hybrid)
I got a pretty good deal on these plants as they were all under 10€ and some are already pretty large.
As soil i used a mix of blonde peat (over 90% is spaghnum) and live longfibre spaghum in a 1:1 ratio. Some sites suggest using a 1:2 mix (1 peat/2 long fibre spaghnum) but i found this mix to be a little too light and some of the larger plants had a hard time staying up. Even with the 1:1 mix the soil has good drainage and keeps a lot of moist. At the bottom of the pot (approx. 11cm high and 18cm diameter) i put about 1 cm of "oasis-foam" (the green foam used for decorative flowerpieces) as an extra water buffer, although i think the spaghnum holds more than enough by itself. As topping i put a "carpet" of long-fibre spaghnum (gives it a nice green mossy look and helps moisturize the air around the plant). So now it's fingers-crossed hoping all plants will do well.
I'll keep you guys posted on how they are doing.
