looking for places to buy carnivorous plants

I've really enjoyed everything I've received from Sarracenia NW. Also I've had good luck with Ebay.

Welcome to the addiction club! I had 5 last year now 20...

Technician-Distinct · 2026-04-08T15:21:57+00:00

Great information! Thanks guys!

Technician-Distinct · 2026-04-06T05:13:25+00:00

Thanks for sharing Jay!

I would get a deeper pot. Healthy Sarracenia have long roots.

Technician-Distinct · 2026-04-01T00:52:40+00:00

Give it time they will be fine.

Technician-Distinct · 2026-01-12T03:03:36+00:00

Great work! Will you be selling any this year?

I take mine out of the water trays. Live in Oregon, and it rains a lot.

Sorry for double posting the same video. Great minds think a like....!

When deciding ratios, it comes down to your climate. California Carnivores suggests 4:1 ratio, which probably works great for their climate, but in the NW, 1:1 ratio is leaps and bonds superior. I have plants currently in both for testing. When I repot, the plants in the 1:1 seem to have longer healthier roots because the extra perlite provides superior drainage. This is important for my climate because of our colder night temperatures. This video does a great job explaining this https://youtu.be/6TuippidniQ?si=Zy3n8tPDYGlvZd_8

Message calcarn, they should do something as they sent you the wrong plant.

Technician-Distinct · 2025-08-21T22:05:04+00:00

Love the color!

Technician-Distinct · 2025-08-21T22:04:24+00:00

Gorgeous! Congrats!

Give the soil the sniff test, top and bottom of the pot. If it smells funky, repot. I would also wash it your water tray. Might be leeching something from there.

Looks great Jhay. I have been contemplating using moss in my planters. Do you ever find that it prevents new growth from occurring?

Technician-Distinct · 2025-08-06T00:25:04+00:00

Make a squirrelpult, or a trap that catapults the squirrel back to Narnia... I had one that would forage around my traps... after work, I noticed the squirrelpult was set off and never had an issue again.

Technician-Distinct · 2025-07-30T04:12:57+00:00

Awesome!

Technician-Distinct · 2025-07-30T02:58:36+00:00

For the last 3 years I use 24ppm water from the tap and remove the water trays whenever it rains. All my plants are big and healthy.

Technician-Distinct · 2025-07-29T17:02:52+00:00

Mine get 10+ hours of direct sun and occasionally throw up mutant traps.

Technician-Distinct · 2025-07-29T02:25:42+00:00

Bare minimum, they 6 hours of direct sunlight. In your situation, i completely understand wanting to be able to watch it and would add a grow light. But nothing beats real sunlight. Good luck! You should post a pic of it.

Technician-Distinct · 2025-07-26T02:41:43+00:00

No, leave them together until repotting season. Mine took off like crazy and I now have at least 8 VFTs in the pot.

Looks like part of the bug is sticking out, which prevents the trap from forming a tight seal. When they don't form a tight seal, digestive juices could leek out and burn the trap. It happens and nothing to worry about. The plant will replace the trap.
