Hello all, I just joined this site in order to learn about grown CPs and maybe buy and trade some. I just completed a 4'x28' bog. I have been growing plants in kiddie pools while the bog is under construction and have just moved all those plants over to the finished bog.

Very nice job on the bog.
Give it a couple years and it'll be full.
Thank you. It is hard to tell but I already have quite a good assortment of Sarracenia, Drosera, and companion plants in the bog. I just added 10 S. purpurea var venosa today. I have no doubt it will fill in in the next couple years.

I guess it's my turn to suggest you give the seed bank a look if you want more plants.
I really appreciate your suggestion about the seed bank. I plan to use this both to request and to donate seeds. Thank you!
