Hi Neil,
At first I mistook fatboy as a plant, sorry no offence.
Hi all,
I do agree with Cindy, Fatboy and Neil , though I actually started CP with VFT (most still growing). Now my attitudes towards highlander CPs are; don’t buy any new one and not going extra mile for the one I already owned.
Don’t throw out your sarr yet, I have done some research on the web:
According to Kim & Barbara of Tristan's Carnivorous Plants in Hawaii
“Although we were afraid that Sarracenia would not receive enough dormancy to grow here in Hawaii, they have done just fine for 3 years creating their own dormancy with photoperiod shortening in the fall and winter.”
Closer at home;
According to Tan Hong Yee
“Regarding dormancy I've experienced are those of S.leucophylla. It also goes into dormancy on its own in our weather, and resumes growth after several months.
BTW I will be at the orchid show Sunday late morning.
