New Sarracenia Purpurea
I picked up this guy a few days ago from a local garden shop. He’s currently in a 4” pot and since he’s really small that makes sense. At what point should I repot and what size pot would be good? I’m looking at a 10” pot (8” deep). Is that a good size for an adult?
My VFT is in a mixture of perlite and peat moss; would the same be good for this guy?
Also, does the Vigoro perlite have additives like the Miracle Gro brand or is it safe to use?
Thanks everyone!
As an aside, when I got him he was totally green. After a couple of days outside in complete cloud cover and rain he started coloring up a little. A couple days more of just a bit of sun and even more color. I thought it would take a lot more sun than it has to see some color.
