Autunm is coming and with it, cold nights and rains. Thus, I have brought inside all of my tropical plants. Here you can see my two sundew containers (with flowering D. indica) as well as the nepenthes cutting, whose single vine grows thicker every day but still has no roots as far as I can tell. Here I will also germinate Sarracenia seeds after stratify them. I'm using four 1600 lumen 5000 color temperature bulbs. I mist everyone occasionally. The only danger they will suffer here is my cat, which is why the area in enclosed with cardboard boxes. Please post any comments, opinions, tips below.
