I would love to give an update DC. However, SOME of us don't live in a tropical paradise.

My Sarracenia are currently residing in an unheated, barely above freezing insulated garage along with some fig trees. And husband has to schlep RO water out to the Sarracenia in a five gallon bucket from the second floor of the house, because there's about an inch of ice on top of the rain barrels. He loves me/tolerates me very well.

I'd post a picture, but it would be ugly. Plus OB doesn't allow me to post pictures nowadays.

You should tell your husband that while it would be more work all at once, he should think about all of the bucket carrying over the years that he wouldn't need to do if he dug you a bog.
