[Can anyone help identify this Sarra please?]

Haven't got into neps yet. If they're reasonably priced maybe worth a try. Surprising how quickly the neglected sarracenias pick uo though after a bit of TLC.

My local garden centre does have some nice looking CPs,

Bardills by any chance?

Can't resist buying something whenever I'm there.

[Which RO?]

I think I have a much clearer picture about RO systems now, thanks. Just one final question; I've noticed that domestic RO systems seem to be either for drinking water or for aquaria. Which system do people normally go for?

Cheers,

[Which RO?]

Thanks for the info. Some more questions

• How do they connect to the mains? Is it a tap connection, or do they require something more permanent?
  
• Can they work unattended?
  
• How quickly do they work?

Hi,

I've read several of the threads regarding water quality and seen good reports on reverse osmosis systems. Looking at the websites there appears to be a multitude of different types. Does anybody have any hints or recommendations?

Thanks,

Hi Richard,

Welcome. You'll find plenty of opportunity to build your collection here!

Hello and welcome.

[Greenhouse shading]

Sarracenia don't need shade from the UK sun, but you can wilt them from very high temps so make sure that the greenhouse is well ventilated in hot weather , open door, plenty of roof vents etc

Thanks Stephen. I had a feeling that was the case. I have an automatic roof vent and leave the door open when the weather's OK when at work. Think I'll remove the shading especially with the overcast skies we've been having this week.

Cheers,

Hi,

I've recently returned to collecting CPs and this time procured a greenhouse for the purpose. A month or so ago finding the interior very hot and the sun very bright and fearing the plants would get scorched I installed some greenhouse shading I bought from B&Q. In people's experience is this really necessary or will the CPs thrive on the sunlight? I live in the East Midlands and am mostly growing sarracenias.

Many thanks,

Martin

Go on, you've talked me into it! I'll be there but unfortunately not for very long.

[Hi from Derby]

Thanks everybody. I've already bought each of the sarracenia species to get me re-started. I'm also trying seed for the first time which is a bit of a challenge but hopefully worth the effort.

[Hi from Derby]

Hello everyone. Just joined CPUK yesterday as I've started collecting again after a break of about 10 years. It's good to see so many sources of plants now - I can only remember Marston Exotics from all those years ago.
