How do i remove dead sarra leaves??????
i have lots of dead leaves that has been cut near to the rhizome...... but it looks very untidy........... how do i clean it uP

Just top up with sphagnum moss. Or you can split the plants and cut the dead leaves too.

[Harris Azariel]

removing dead leafs is good and its easy to detect pest like mealy bug or scales if its there on the sarr or it'll hide between the dead stuff

How do I split them? I cant understand their rhizome. . . . . Teach me how to split them n when is the best time to split?

[Harris Azariel]

when they have multiple rhizomes.if its big enough,u pull it with a little force it'll seperate apart.very easy.but make sure its very big(rhizome)

[winterkid]

here are some pics.................the second last pic......what are the white things on the root?

[Harris Azariel]

your sarracenia is divideble now.but jsut dont divide it yet.just let it grow.

the white stuff is spider web i think.mine has it too when i have that much dead rhizomes sticking there.i suggest u to cut away the brown rhizomes away!

[winterkid]

i dont think its spider web....meby it is fungus...
and how do i cut off the brown rhizome ?????? i dont know how.....
after it grows where should i cut it???

[Harris Azariel]

well...the dead stuff looks like it already become dead for more than a month and very hard to cut it away.so,just leave it there.until the time u repotting it,pull it out

go buy some of those pesticides i recon u to buy from Mr. LIm.that pesticide works great for me.and u should always have some on hand incase those stupid pest(mealy bugs,scales etc bla bla bla) come


Thanks
