A look into all the Sarracenia I currently own in my greenhouse collection. This is the best time of year to see Sarracenia as a whole with their amazing colour.
It's the first time I have grown one of these plants it's October and it's just flowerd it looks beautiful strawberry red petals and inside lime green.I opened one of the old trumpets it was full of insects. Looking forward to spring and lot's of new growth. If you have never had one of these plants have a go
Just discovered you on here , really enjoyed your video and good to see how to treat plants here in UK which is very helpful for a newbie to the genre.
That is an amazing collection of Sarracenias. All the different heights and attention you put into their growth. I did notice you had some growing in a barrel outside. Will you make a video on that set up? 🍃🍃😚🍃🍃
Nice collection! I got my first sarracenia (flava var flava) last year. It only had one pitcher. Looking forward to seeing it grow again. Hoping for more pitchers. 🤞
Well done sweet I'm impressed, you're right they're really cool.. My favourite species of Carnivorous plant. You've obviously a passion, congratulations on a wonderful collection.
I had lots of wasps near my bins. So I put my plant on top of the bin. It made short work of them. Couldn't believe the amount of wasps the plant devoured.
@@carnivorous_plant_girl ahhh... well this changes everything. It's an amazing plant. Love the leuco's in the minutes prior to it too! Keep up the good work!
I have done a crossing video over the last week. Just need to edit and upload it. Will also aim to do a video detailing crossing and the seed process too. Thanks for the suggestion
I loved this video. I left my Sarracenia at my window for 2 very hot days. It dried. I put it back into water after. Is there a chance it's going to produce new leaves again?
Hi there, yes I’ve had the same thing happen to me. Just be patient, leave them sitting in water, they will grow again but it may be a good month before you start to see growth again
Thank you! Unfortunately I was never able to do a video on my outside planter as I couldn’t set up a camera anywhere. Maybe something I’ll invest in the future 😁
Hi, when you Cross pollinate your Sarracenia how do you know what to name them, like if you Crossed a Flava with say a Purpurea how would you Write it on a Label that i would get Confused with never cross pollinated my Plants before i know what to do but never tried it .Anyway you have a really nice Collection and i would be Greatful if you could Help me with cross naming question.Thank's 👍
Thank you, no worries. So if you’ve placed the flava pollen onto the purp tea flower, you would write on the labels Sarracenia Flava x Sarracenia Purpurea. Another example if you’ve crossed a flava with a another hybrid like a flava x oreophila then on that label you would write Sarracenia flava x Sarracenia (flava x oreophila). Hope this helps
How often do these plants need new peat? Some say one should do it almost every year, but I've seen plants sitting in their pots / bog gardens for years. I'm a bit confused. Like your videos and subscribed
Some say it is best to repot every one or two years yes, however personally I only ever repot my plants when they have either outgrown their pot or there is something wrong with the set up, with a large collection it would be very wasteful. So I’d recommend only when they need it
Fertilisation is not required for any carnivorous plants. You do not need to feed insects either. Some growers use fish flakes or meal worms to feed plants if this is something you would like to do however
Hi there, no you do not fill pitcher of Sarracenia (other than purpurea which you can put a little water in pitchers). Most Sarracenia rely on bacteria to digest prey as they do not produce digestive enzymes as such compared to other carnivorous plants so no liquid is required. Hope this helps :)
Hi I just got some Sarracenia from a supermarket I love them but don't know much about them, my problem is I think they had been watered with tap water but I got them home and gave them rain water from a water bucket in my yard, should my pitchers have fluid in them as far as I can see they are empty, will they top up them selfs or do I have to put water in to the pitchers myself. hope you can help Thanks Tom.
Hi Tom, Sarracenia do not require water to be put in their pitchers as they rely on bacteria to break down prey rather than digestive enzymes. As long as you continue to give them rain water there should be little damage done by the tap water given to them in store. Hope this helps

Thank you for your comment! My collection of Sarracenia has and will continue to grow so I can’t wait to see what this year brings ☺️
@@carnivorous_plant_girl You're a credit to the community.. That trapped fly won't be bothering you or your neighbours again 😆
They look really great

Hello betty😅
Nice sarracenia it beautiful
You've got a great selection!!! Loved watching the video. The plant at 3:24 is a beautiful flava, but not an Adrian Slack.
Thank you. Yeah sorry that was an Adrian slacks maxima! I forgot to state that! My mistake
@@carnivorous_plant_girl ahhh... well this changes everything. It's an amazing plant. Love the leuco's in the minutes prior to it too! Keep up the good work!
How about a video illustrating different Spieces and their features and/or cross breeding to give seeds

@@carnivorous_plant_girl thanks. I'll be patient 😄
Do you have a video on how you did the outside bog planter ? Btw love your videos

What happened if we put water in the pitcher
Should we remove it or it's ok?
Probably
Shouldn't make too much of a different if you have put a little bit in there but it isn't needed as they will create their own
Sometimes rain gets in, too, so relax; it’s not a big deal. 😊
How can I fertilize my sarracenia in a flat where there are no insects?
Fertilisation is not required for any carnivorous plants. You do not need to feed insects either. Some growers use fish flakes or meal worms to feed plants if this is something you would like to do however
what is the name of the red trumpet pitchers with red veined tops in the beginning of vid? I see a cephalotus in there, what soil mix do you use?
The red sarracenia at the start is sarracenia flava var rubricorpra. And I use a mixture of peat, sharp sand and perlite for my cephalotus :)
What size pots are you using and how long do you go before transplanting?
I use a 9cm pot for most Sarracenia. I will only repot when the rhizome has reached the end of the pot and it starts to bulge
Hi do you put water inside the pitchers of sarracenia? Thanks
Hi there, no you do not fill pitcher of Sarracenia (other than purpurea which you can put a little water in pitchers). Most Sarracenia rely on bacteria to digest prey as they do not produce digestive enzymes as such compared to other carnivorous plants so no liquid is required. Hope this helps :)
@@carnivorous_plant_girl yes helped alot, thanks so much

@@carnivorous_plant_girl Hi Thanks for getting back to me. I have a water butt set up to catch rain water the plants are doing okay .Cheers. Tom
Your majesty, that is not Adrian Slack.
Yes I am aware sir, that is my Sarracenia flava ‘Adrian Slacks Maxima’. I accidentally said this during the video
