A mini bog garden is a wonderful, easy addition to a patio or deck. Just get a large bowl-like container of your choice and lay down about an inch of aquarium gravel in the bottom. Top that off to surface level with lfs or Spanish moss and position your potted specimen plants in the bowl to your suiting. You can cover the entire bowl with ground covers of your choice. Then fill with water up to the appropriate level depending on the plants you choose. Sarracenias, Venus fly traps, Drosera capensiss’ will do wonderfully in a bog-type container outside. If you wish to substitute the Spanish moss and ground cover with just water  up to the top level of the container, you can create a more aquatic-like effect and select some of my rare aquatic Utricularia to grow in the water of your newly created bog. Just remember to keep the water level or your plant pot height level at the correct height for the plants you choose. Some CP’s require and thrive with certain level of wetness. Thanks, good growing, Chuck!
