  1. I've thrown away the moss/vermiculite mix and repotted it in plain sphagnum moss. Hope it's not too late?
  2. Thanks to Stephen for hosting this. Sorry we didn't stay for long, hope to stay longer next time :-)
  3. I meant to post ages ago. I repotted in a mix of sphagnum moss and vermiculite. It's now in a pot about 6" across instead of the tiny thing it came in. I washed all the peat off with distilled water before repotting. To be honest, it's not growing very vigorously despite being outside for at least a month. Is it still too soon in the year, or is it shock from being repotted? Could the vermiculite be a bad thing for it?
  4. Hi Trev It's still in the same pot and medium I bought it in. I'll probably repot it in a week or two. Thanks, Martin
  5. Hi Trev I've only had it a month or so. It spent the first fortnight on the west facing kitchen windowsill, now it is outside and gets a good chunk of sun (if it ever comes out). I'll take a picture tomorrow. Thanks Martin
  6. Hi, My VFT has traps on the end of very broad, stumpy looking leaves which lay flat on the surface of the compost. It doesn't look anything like the plants shown with vibrant, strong leaves projecting the trap into the air. Is this a sign of deficiency of some kind, or is it just the variety of plant? Thanks, Martin
  7. Wonderful, thanks. If you could send me directions I'll pop along.
  8. Hi, I'm only about 40 minutes away, and I'm interested in coming. Do you run a nursery open to the public, or is this a private collection? Thanks Martin
  9. Are there more details of this somewhere please?Edit; found it, thanks.
  10. Hi, I think this is the fourth time I've had a go at VFTs over the last 30 years or so. Last time was about 10 years ago. Hoping for better results this time, and to build a collection. Sundews next maybe? Martin East Yorkshire
