Repotting Pinguicula 'Aphrodite': 5" Pot, Sandy Alkaline Mix with Dolomite Lime

Move P. 'Aphrodite' to a ~5" pot (African violet pots work well). Use equal parts peat, perlite, sand + 1 tbsp dolomite lime per cup of mix. Lime boosts growth significantly. Wet mix before use. Roots are short; ensure they're buried. Broken leaves can be laid on soil to root.

Dolomite lime (powder, not prilled) is at garden centers (e.g., Home Depot). For non-pitchering Nepenthes, compare conditions to SNW's guide and ask follow-ups.
