Hi, im after some advice about Sarracenia - i grow them in a large container, theyre in the correct mix of peat, sand and perlite, theyre in a mostly sunny spot and i keep them moist with rainwater - however they dont seem to do much and any new growth looks deformed (no trumpets)- any advice anyone???

Hi Howee. If you would like to post some pictures of your sarras and then contact me by PM I will do what I can. Have you any sphagnum moss in your mix? Remember that it is still very early in the growing season.

There is a member on GOY who is a specialist and is called Sarraceniac. He gave me advice on how to plant and divide mine. At the moment mine look a bit like yours. Perhaps its too early in the season for them. If he doesnt spot this question I will contact him and tell him about it. We could both benefit from his advice.
