myrddin Posted June 26, 2018 Report Share Posted June 26, 2018 (edited) I've just bought some venus fly trap seeds and hoping to grow a plant, but i can't find a suitable growing medium. a site suggested sphagnum peat moss, but i can't find anywhere that sells it. most garden centres have never heard of sphagnum, and one person at Homebase had heard of it, but they dont have any. is it banned in the UK?

Stu Posted June 26, 2018 Report Share Posted June 26, 2018 Try independent garden centres rather than chains. That being said, I think B&Q used to stock the small packet of sphagnum moss by Gardman, as it's used in hanging baskets for water retention. If you can't find any locally, there are a few guys that sell portions on ebay. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
