Default Re: New Sarra

Is your sarra the tall green guy, or the purple and squat guy? Anyways, sarras like full sunlight to get the perfect colour and best growth. Keep them in the water tray all the time, there is no need to fill up water if you bought sarracenia flava, the tall green guy.

So you bought a Cephalotus? Well, congrats. Have a good time to make the ceph acclimatise to your area. David told me that cephs do best in peat moss and perlite mix. I will be repotting my ceph soon. Don't overwater the ceph and don't leave it in the water tray. If you want bigger pitchers, give it a cool environment and lesser sunlight. if you want colourful pitchers, give it full sunlight, although the pitchers will be smaller.

Have a good time growing!

Cheers
