My recent experiences with P. prim seem to indicate that they prefer
FRESH media; upon planting some that I received bare-root into new
peat/vermiculite (and l.f. sphag), they all really took off. Now, 6 mos
later, they don't seem to be quite as vigorous (though it might be the
season & changes in light, too). If they don't perk up by spring, I'm
going to just transplant them all again & see what happens. (They are
not unhealthy--they're flowering & producing leaf-keikis--it's just a
"gestalt" thing...)
