I just put together a VFT and Drosera minibog and I wanted to post some pics to get all of your opinions on it. The potting mix I used was 5 parts peat, 2 parts sand (washed) and 3 parts perlite. Before putting it into the planter I drilled 2 holes on each side about 3" up the side of the container and lay down a layer of long fiber sphagnum. Once planted I top dressed with LFS. It is sitting on my deck and should get a good 5-6 hours of sun.
In the bog I put 1 pretty large (large comparied to all my other plants!) Drosera binata, 4 Drosera capensis, 1 Typical VFT I got from a carnivorous plant supplier, and 1 typical VFT which I managed to split up into 5 plants that I saved from a nursery. The result can be seen in the photos below. Please tell me what you think and if there is something I could do better. Will I have any foreseeable problems keeping the VFTs and Drosera in the same container? Please let me know what you think!
