Bog garden with D. filiformis, Darlingtonia and Sarracenia.

[Martin Ravn]

Here is a few pictures from one of my bog gardens. These are located in central Jutland, Denmark. For many weeks now we have had unusual large amount of rain.

As you can see Drosera filiformis filiformis are doing very well. These have been sown in the bog and are originally from Ocean co. 

 

This one is Drosera x hybrida. You can also see runners from one of the Darlingtonia clonal groups.

 

There is a number of seed grown Darlingtonia clonal groups in this bog. They were sown by myself in 2017.  They seems to enjou our danish climate. During winter the leaves are gone, killed by frost.

 

In Denmark, as in many other places in Europe, we have introduced populations of Sarracenia. Unlike many other places one of our populations are hybrids. Often these are very colorful. These two are stolen from an old introduced population.

A lot of purpurea hybrids would be able to survive up there. Remember that its not only about how much frost during the winter but also the lenght and warmth during the summer thats important.
