This is lovely! I do not like flesh eating plants but this one, displayed as it is, is really nice.

~Sarracenia are easy-you have to give them rain water ,keep them damp ,and provide a damp atmosphere if possible-hence the semi enclosed glass-you can put moss in the bottom to increase the moist atmosphere.
That particular glass urn was from TK maxx who have a good selection-unfortunately got broken so on the lookout for another!~
Nice selection of plants at Kew in an enclosed glass area.

~ hi Sandra
~at Wyevale yesterday saw a similar smaller urn with a red Sarracenia planted directly in to it with moss on top at £19.99~cheaper to do it yourself!

This is wonderful, I has just looking at some flesh eaters today, we are not humid, this is something like I do for my orchids, great idea! I just might go out and get one.
