Don't leave them in a tray of water. That will cause them to rot. What are they planted in? My bogs stay out year round. I haven't gotten dialed into the best way to do small pots. 1 gallon pots clustered together do fine if protected by leaves or pine straw.
Got it, I'll make sure not to keep them in water then! Do I just top water them whenever they start drying up during winter?
The sarracenia are in the original 2.5 inch plastic pots they came in from Pikes, all LFSM.
I have a small B52 I got late that's in a small 2.5 inch square plastic pot that it came planted in, LFSM. Not sure if I should take this one inside and put it under a grow light or something during winter. It's not like seedling tiny, but it's definitely a young plant.
The rest of my VFTs are planted in 4.5 inch plastic pots, peat moss/perlite for the medium, with a layer of LFM on top to keep the peat moss from splashing when it rains.
I was planning on leaving them all outside, then move them into the garage if it ever started to freeze or snow, you think that's the way to do it? Or better to just move them all into the garage to be safe? It's a non heated garage connected to my house.
