Outdoor bog garden kit (2x Sarracenia & Venus flytrap)
Do you want to create a bog garden or communal pot that looks spectacular all season and can overwinter outdoors without problems? Then this package is an excellent start. The combination of Sarracenia 'Fon', Sarracenia 'Tess' and a Dionaea muscipula (Venus flytrap) provides a varied whole of colorful pitchers and active traps that catch insects.
The two Sarracenias provide height, color and structure in the bog garden, while the Venus flytrap fills the open spaces with its iconic snap traps. Together, they form a low-maintenance combination that changes and becomes more beautiful throughout the growing season.
What makes this package special?
It's all about contrast here. The Venus flytrap stays low to the ground and catches insects with its well-known traps, while the Sarracenias grow straight up and form impressive pitchers that remain decorative for months. This creates a natural bog planting that is both functional and visually appealing. In addition, all plants have been selected for their suitability for outdoor cultivation. They enjoy the same conditions: plenty of sun, wet feet and a cold winter dormancy.
The story behind it
Many people start with one carnivorous plant on the windowsill, but soon discover that these plants often do even better outdoors. This package brings together three classics that complement each other perfectly in a bog garden. After a few years, the plants form larger clumps and the bog garden only becomes more impressive. Together, they catch a huge amount of flies in a season!
