  • I apologize about my constant squinting... this is our first sunshine in about 9 months!
    Showing how to make a mini North American carnivorous plant bog with Sarracenia (North American Pitcher Plants), Dionaea (Venus Flytrap), and Drosera filiformis (Thread Sundew).
    All these plants are hardy in our zone, Zone 8b so they are grown outside and left outside year round.
    Materials:
    Pot (Any pot except terra cotta or other clay-based pot will do.)
    Plants (Sarracenia, Dionaea, Drosera)
    Potting Mix (1/2 Perlite and 1/2 Sphagnum Peat Moss)
    Water (Reverse Osmosis, Distilled, Rain...but in our case our ta (portlandbg.org/p water is safe for Carnivorous Plants!)
    This specific bog will be donated to the Portland Botanical Garden to be auctioned off (portlandbg.org)
    Our Sarracenia collection is private but we do sell them at our shop!

    Hi there, I’m from UK 🇬🇧, I like the idea of having drainage holes in the pot as when I did one without, the bowl stank! So thanks once again 😊

    Oh yay!! I would absolutely love to do something like this in the future. I’ll probably ask you 100 questions before I do it. It was such a pleasure checking out your shop today, and meeting you! I will be back soon

      I cut them early spring before flowers come up. Usually by Autumn they're droopy. The pitchers that you see here are this year's pitchers.
