Cyms just scream "share me"... It's nice to be able to untangle roots and get them apart gently, but quite a few need to be "persuaded" out of their pots with a wood mallet, then deconstructed with a serrated-edge knife. Or a saws-all. They do recover.

Love me some sarracenia! I had a mini bog in a half wine barrel for a couple years in dry ass Colorado but sadly a harsh winter punched its card. Will likely try again soon. Beautiful stuff as always, DC!

I don't know what to say... just astounded by the different plants you have, and jealous, and words won't describe it. How fortunate you are to have grown up in a tropical wonderland environment.
The Sarraceniaceae.... I've tried so hard, and always fail, fail, fail. And crap, some are native here. I've given up.

on the Islands they are called Flamboyants and come in all the magical colors on the NEON spectrum
