I bought a Venus Flytrap last month and it has been growing quickly! So quickly that I had to buy a new pot for it yesterday. I bought a orchid pot (a somewhat circular pot with small holes all around it for drainage) and I bought a bag of SPM (Spahgnum peat moss). I heard somewhere that you're supposed to plant it with 50% SPM and 50% Perlite. I looked all over for some perlite but I only found the miracle grow kind which I have learned is a no-no. So do you think I can just plant it in SPM and the orchid pot will keep it drained or do you think I absolutely have to have Perlite?
