Hello CP aficionados
I'm a CP grower since 1990 with a very long hiatus from 1992 til 2015.
I caught the bug in 1990 and ordered some vft, sarracenia purpurea and drosera out of a paper, yes, paper catalog. I put the plants in an old 10 gal aquarium and they did fantastically!
Life got busy, the plants disappeared but I'm back since 2015 with two 'bogs' as I call them. I have several hardy VFT's, sarracenia Rubra hybrid, drosera and this year I started another bog with sarracenia Scarlet Belle and sarracenia Purpurea. The Scarlet Belle isn't doing so hot but the Purpurea didn't mind being transplanted at all. I enjoy the beauty and uniqueness of all carnivorous plants.
