The G-house measures 21 ft long by 17 ft wide. And is about 8-9 ft tall.
 
Hey NepG,
Looks like a pretty nice set-up you'll have when all is said and done.
 
Awsome Nep G! I'm jealous.

But I'm glad there ARE people out there lucky enough to have a greenhouse. BTW...I had some nice foxgloves this year too.

Thanks for the kind comments you two!!! I kinda put the g-house up for my own good (as the CP's are parading through my house,esp. my 2 foot diameter N.Truncata with 10 inch pitchers&#33

And sorta for other people's good as I will/can have other CP available for trade,etc with the proper environment and it will be in a larger space.

large Purp subsp. Purp in bog outside.
 
Good to see that catesbaei is growing good. As far as the leucophylla - this is not the best time of year for good leuco pitchers. They usually put up a 'snake-like' crop early in the year, and put up their robust ones in the fall. Wait until around September - that's when they put up their 'real' pitchers. I have one form that puts up nothing but phyllodia-like pitchers until fall.
 
Well perhaps I have the same form as you do? I am glad it should be ok. Ok I'll wait till Sept!

Thanks!
 
Hi Nep G,
Looks good your new set up, you should be able to grow 100s of CP in there

That sounds good! I wanna have enough room! So, after our chat you and I had a while back I can grow ANY SArracenia in there year round with no heat excpet in Mar? or sometime aroudn there? Thanks!

Nice Pics! I wish I had a greenhouse. We grow lots of Digitalis Purpurea here. They are quite pretty.
