Questions....& answers I suppose it could be grown as a house plant on a sunny windowsil provided it can sit in a tray of rainwater. It is perennial,it goes into dormancy for the winter months. I'm in the UK but my zone is equivalent to USDA 6/7. Mine grow in excess of 2 feet. Boggy soil,I use a mix of live sphagnum moss and peat moss kept permanently standing in water. Where can you get one,I have no idea as I dont know where you are from :-) Maybe someone on this site could help you with that! I understand that they originate from the South East coast of North America. |
