Growing S. flava, need new compost, don't want peat. Coir said to kill them. Good alternatives?
Jacob Farin: only reliable peat substitute for Sarracenia is sphagnum moss (live or dried). Straight live sphagnum works phenomenally. Dried sphagnum + equal perlite/pumice for drainage. Warning: only for Sarracenia—won't work long-term for VFTs/sundews.
Good growing!
