yup.....glorious season for them!

but how do you keep them erect and not lying as if they have been swept by typhoon?

[piscesilim]

I love hot temperature rather than raining day!

Just like my D. filiformis, D. indica, B. liniflora. Keep all of them close to each other. However, some pitchers still can lie down if got really heavy rain.

Our country got typhoon ?

asking one question, may i know what will happen if i use fully sphagnum moss instead of sphagnum moss with perlite?

same result, no difference.....

I use 100% sphagnum moss before. Yes. no different. But sphagnum moss tend to become compressed and decrease the root ventilation after some time. Adding perlite is to increase the ventilation. And make your medium last longer.
