Oh they are wild looking things, aye? I love them...water in my stream moves too fast for the native sarracenia. they require a bog...but who knows what can be done? I just might be my next project...a bog blog ??? heheeee. When I first saw the thumbnail I thought it was a tiffany lamp of some type~!

Lol.Lori. I thought the same thing. Strange but lovely Sandra. Just came back from your neck of the woods. Been down to Amroth again for a few days. So relaxing, just what the doctor ordered. hehe. :o))

They are wonderful plants Sandra There is a zone dedicated to carnivorous plants at Kew with large clumps of Sarracenias.they always cause quite a stir when they are in bloom. Many people dont realize they are hardy.

Linda....i love Amroth... its about twenty miles from me....glad you feel better after your holiday..
