Curious what your guys' look like, made my first one, kind of having trouble with the gravel staying put and not exposing the coir.

I like gravel more than coir, nice bog! Any drosera in there?

Yeah, capensis, intermedia, and a hybrid from dionae. Just a bit tired of the gravel being misplaced after rain.

I actually have a part of our field that is COVERED I wet, boggy, moss constantly. Been thinking about it...

Would love to know why that pitcher keeps falling over, should I stake it?

Here's my bog



As far as the falling pitcher, you can definitely stake it up.

God, dionae. AMAZING. Is that in a pool too? Or in ground, and if in ground, how did you go about planting, and was the medium replaced? Or did you use the natural land itself.

Thank you! I dug a hole around a ft deep and around 4ftx6ft around, put a few inches of washed red lava rock and filled the rest with peat, sphagnum and sand.

Awesome bogs. Both look really nice

You put a plastic cover inside the hole ?

Yup!

All of your bogs look so good! My big one has been taken over by shade and I'm not allowed to cut the trees down. So everything is being moved to pots. Aggravating. But, anyway, here's my minibog! I'll be moving things around and redoing it this winter. Thinking about switching to these completely. They're easy to deal with.
