Alexcpdk Posted February 15, 2018 Report Share Posted February 15, 2018 Hi all. Do any species Do Well in the greenhouse with the Sarracenia ? I have tryed P. Vulgaris, but i Think it was way to hot for it, so lost it slowly :/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ada Posted February 15, 2018 Report Share Posted February 15, 2018 it depends on where you keep them in the greenhouse, if you keep them on the floor by the open door,where it is cooler and gets the benefit of the cooling draught, they can be grown successfully. Place them where they get the early morning sun while it is still cool. if they are in full sun,all day everyday,eventually the heat will kill them.Why not grow them outside?

ham Posted February 16, 2018 Report Share Posted February 16, 2018 Pinguicula primuliflora can stand quite a lot of heat. Many of the complex petiaris sundews can stand a lot of heat and love a lot of light as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alexcpdk Posted February 17, 2018 Author Report Share Posted February 17, 2018 Thank you for answer. I will try to get some species, and plant them outside in a planter. Is 50 peat 50 perlite ok for them ? How cold can Pinguicula primuliflora handle? Here in Denmark we have freezing in winter . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ada Posted February 17, 2018 Report Share Posted February 17, 2018 50/50 peat and perlite is fine for most species but some do like lime in the mix. I don't think p.primuliflora would survive your winter without any heating. P.grandiflora will grow well,and there are 4 flower coloured forms Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
