Hello all -
Well, Spring is here and it looks as if my Sarracenia and VFT
have come out of dormancy. There's new growth, but I don't see any flower
stalks developing and I would certainly like to. The lights in my
terrarium are on fo 12 hours/day and the temp. is around 70 degrees F.
You all know the problem I had with my Cephalotus (traps drying after
transplanting) I took Terry's advice and injected water into them with a
syringe. One of the traps looks better, but the other is still browning
and crinkling I'm afraid. Anyway, no new growth on that. My biblis has
germinated and is doing well. How about those flowers, though? Any
advice? Perhaps I'm just being too impatient . . . Thanks, Trish
