Welcome to the forum. This is an addicting hobby.

Welcome. Don't listen to panman, it's TOTALLY not addicting . Just kidding, once you get them you want more, and then you can start crossing them - I'm sure Sunrise x B52 could give rise to a new cultivar even.

Welcome to the FlytrapCare forums! I have no idea what these guys are talking about in terms of addiction

Truth be told, I had exactly three species when I joined this forum. VFT, drosera intermedia, and sarracenia flava. Now that I have drank the kool-aid I've got close to 30 species/varieties/cultivars. Most of them through trades and the seed bank plus a few new purchases. I just did the math, and I've been at this hobby for 38 years (that in no way indicates any level of expertise). My interest has waxed and waned, but in recent days it has come back full power. Not that any of this is a bad thing. I love this hobby, the plants, and the great people I have met through this. @Atirah, I hope you find as much enjoyment out of these as I do.

Now i got my new sarracenia..the addiction is truee.. ..btw how to cross sunrise × b52?

Beautiful!

If both plants bloom at the same time, you wait until the stigma on one flower has flared open, then rub it with pollen from the other plant. Take a look at Matt's article about Venus flytrap propagation. The picture of the flytrap flower shows a stigma that's ready to be pollinated.

Woahhh.. thanks @MikeB
Now I need to set up for their dormancy period using refrigerator method since i live in tropical country and this is their first year of dormancy so I'm getting nervous ..i hope it'll be just fine
