Perhaps I should explain why I don't like growing them together better.
I often grow my 2nd year seedling Sarracenia inbetween the adult plants
and they would have much less room or none competing with cranberries.
I never thought about using them as support for the mature plants though.
Thank's a lot. This set up may very well be more appealing in
appearance for people interested in having a purely decorative bog as
opposed to a more functional bog like mine.
Good Growing,
Dave Evans
