Ever since we released "Exploring the Enigmatic Cobra Plant on the Oregon Coast," many growers have asked about our follow-up video. Life got in the way of finishing it for a bit, but we've officially wrapped filming and are now in final post-production. Mark your calendars: the video drops on July 14!
So what's up with the early announcement? Because we're super excited about the content of this video!
The video distills our 30 years of experience in growing Darlingtonia. We're sharing the lessons, experiments, and mistakes we made along the way—including the devastating turning point where we lost 90% of our mother plants! Yes, 90%! It was a humbling experience, but it completely transformed our understanding of this plant. Like we sometimes tell our customers, "We kill plants, so you don't have to!"
Our perspective of Darlingtonia has changed dramatically over the decades. It took a lot of trial and error to crack the code, but as it turns out, this "enigmatic" plant is easy to grow—as long as you maintain two critical factors. Ignore them, and your plant will always struggle.
What are these two factors? Stay tuned to find out! Video drops on July 14.
