My plants were definitely in the mood for propagation. I did nothing to encourage this, and they decided to crank out a bunch of offshoots last season. Now, the pots are seriously overcrowded, or the soil is old and going "sour", or both. So I divide and repot to prevent them from dying, then sell off a bunch of plants in late spring.

And it's only going to get worse in the spring because I need to divide 10 flytrap pots, and I'm expecting to get 60-80 plants from that.

You've got a home for those plants right here.

Venus Flytraps are a threatened species, but I don't think they'll ever go extinct with all these people here overflowing with flytraps.

VFTs are also in good hands with Tissue Culture. They are just really rare in the wild.

Pitcher plants

I ordered a Sarracenia flava var. ornata from David Green, and he threw in a seed-grown freebie. I was very pleased with my purchase; the rhizomes are much bigger than expected, with 2 or 3 large growth points on each one.

Sarracenia flava var. cuprea "Bill Hoyer" x var. ornata "Bulloch Co, Georgia"
Sarracenia flava var. ornata seed-grown, ancestry unknown

After I pot them on Saturday, they'll spend the next few days in the garage due to the winter storm that's hitting the east coast.

No capes or spatulatas?

Nope. I have to keep my plants outside due to a pygmy cow disguised as a cat. Those 2 species would freeze to death in my winter weather (especially this year, where I've had multiple overnight lows down to 20°F / -6.6°C).

You're other sundews survived that weather? I thought that sundews don't like weather below freezing.

There are tropical and temperate sundews. Temperate go into hybernaculums in winter.

I grow the locals (and their hybrids): D. capillaris, filiformis, and intermedia. They know what to do when winter arrives. My D. tracyi plants (from north Florida) took a bit longer to shut down for the winter, but they went fully dormant, too.

I also got some D. anglica seeds from a guy in Oregon last fall. They've been stratifying outside all winter. I'm not sure if they can handle the warm summers here, but we'll see.
