SUMMARY:3/23 BACPS Meetup: Spring Cleaning!
DESCRIPTION:Spring Cleaning!\nSpring is here and so are the plants that spent the last few months in winter dormancy! Plants like North American pitcher plants (Sarracenia) and Venus Flytraps (Dionaea) were busy producing new growth points and now is a great time to get some divisions going. \nJoin the Bay Area Carnivorous Plant Society for a day of plant repotting\, dividing\, cultivation tips\, and trades/sales. Members are encouraged to bring plants that they wish to divide\, trade\, show\, and sell. Please email Zach Lim at president@bacps.org if you wish to bring plants for sale to reserve table space. \nPssst: An incredibly generous member (thanks Mark!!) is bringing a ton carnivores to giveaway this weekend – you don’t wanna miss it!
