This is the new planting:

I was inspired by some of Brooks Garcia's plantings and tried to duplicate the feel with gnarled wood. The sarracenia purpurea in the foreground was a division from earlier this year. It is flanked on the lefe by a Sarracenia alavamesis ssp. wherryii and on the right by a sarracenia alata "Purple Helmet." Lycodium prostrata is snaking around beneath.

Here is "Purple Helmet."

"Ahhh, we can finally Breathe!"


Here is the old planting. The Scarlet Belle is going in a pot alone.

Normally I like to repot in the spring when growth starts but since most of the plants were already potted I proceded.

Scarlett Belle must be the most vigorous Sar that I grow. Definately keeping them in their own pot.

The drosera filliformis began as one red form. Over winter the red one almost froze to death but green seedlings sprang up next spring. One of them turned out to be very vigorous.

I still have a small clump of red filliformis but it is not cold hardy in North Florida-maybe because it is pot cultured versus being in the ground. No problem with the green form yet.

After reading a recent post about propagating droseras by cutting I decided to divide the red filliformis, pot the tiny divisions, and before the first freeze will bring it inside for the winter.
