Hello all. I had typed a better thing but for some reason it poofed. So shorter thing - I’m a newbie grower with a severe addiction now to these plants. I have 9 liberated from Lowe’s VFTs, 2 cups of drosera mixed that a kind person grew to seedlings but may not make it due to heat damage from shipping or my lack of knowledge (one of the plants from the rosette cup may make it, fingers crossed), a pinguicula ehlersiae, and a Sarracenia division that I won in an online auction, but I can’t for the life of me find it mentioned anywhere but here so I’m not really sure of the exact care for it. Right now the care I’m giving is the kind of standard for Sarracenias in general, but I obviously need to know the winter care. It’s a Sarracenia x Popei that that the owner said was geotagged to Baldwin County, Alabama. I have looked it up and found two stores that have a listing for S. x Popei,Rubra x Flava ssp. wherryi, but the stores pictured radically different looking plants that were obviously not the same unless I guess they have a radical change in phases of growth. But the place that kept coming up where people talked about it was here, and it seemed like this was a pretty nice forum for people, so I figured I’d come apply and get some extra knowledge by lurking, some info about my lovely Sarr, and maybe chat a bit. Or more likely bug the crap out of you every once in awhile with a bunch of questions about a plant lol. Once I’m more confident about growing all my stuff I may start to be less OCD about doing everything by a fairly exact set of steps, but I might just be like this in general. I have the same problem with cooking and some other activities.
So sorry in advance for the questions
