I have a bunch of S. oreo that I've been growing inside since early
spring. They've flowered and produced some great pitchers, but as the
sun has risen higher in the sky, they've been shaded by a window awning
and have produced winter leaves. I also have S. leuco and minor that
have done nothing but produce winter leaves, presumably because of low
light levels (or is it possible that they won't pitcher till next year
since I just bought them? transplant shock maybe?). My question is
this: if I move them outside in the sunshine now, will they start
producing pitchers again? Also, will D. spatulata survive freezing
outside? I'm in zone 5b, and we get a lot of snow here. I've planted
one outside in my first attempt at an outdoor bog, but if it's certain
that it'll die, I guess I'd rather dig it up. Also, what about D.
rotundifolia in the same situation?
Thanks,
