Hi Zachary.

A Sarracenia hybrid (probably purpurea X flava) grows on our kitchen
window, now for two years. The pot lies in a big mug that is daily filled
with water. The roots penetrated the water, and seem to develop happily
there (I inspect the roots everyday when adding water).
Is that the sort of relevant experience that you were looking for?
