And in this pot, I planted Drosera capillaris. But is this that? Or what is this? Whatever it is, it looks pretty.

looks like red sphagnum to me as well, which I am jealous of because it looks really nice when used as top dressing

I agree that it looks like red sphagnum. That's a highly desirable moss. Congrats!

Yea it's definitely red sphagnum. As long as you keep that sphagnum wet and it gets enough light, it'll keep growing. Makes awesome ground cover eventually.

That is most definitely red sphagnum and it is awesome! I'd love to get my hands on some too.

Now you got me all worried that I might kill it! It looked like the tips were blackening. Maybe too much light under my T5s.

And these are just coming up. Do you think these could be red as well? Or would they be red all-red-y (

)?

Don't the tips seem to be cooked?

Oh, and some little D. capillaris are coming up. So I can't leave them both together. The moss will suffocate my little sundews. I guess the moss would be the thing to move?
