Hi Wim,

during

>Is there a gradation about frost tolerance among Sarracenia's ?

The experience is my outdoor bog is that S. psittacina is not as hardy
as the other Sarr. I seem to loose a few psitts every winter, while
others do fine. I'm not sure yet what factors are at play since even in
a relatively small bog microclimates exist that might be a factor,
particularly if wind is the factor that is affecting survival.
