Haven't been active on reddit recently, so thought I'd make a post. Sphagnum mosses still pushing even through 95°F+

Winter time

I got this from Quebec. I live in New York. Will it be okay if I bring it inside over the winter, or does it need to be outside?

Newbie question- Overwintering

I live in western North Carolina, and currently have a half dozen or so carnivorous plants in 6” pots. I added sphagnum moss to the pots this year, and most of the pots are really looking good. I overwinter the plants outdoors in cooler areas (unheated workshop, garage, etc.), where they get cold temps and some sunlight without being exposed to the harshest conditions that Mother Nature inevitably throws at us every year. I also dial back the hydration - everything stays damp, but not waterlogged.

My question is simply- will my sphagnum moss endure this type of dormancy?

Pics for tax… TIA!

Can I snip dry tips off to make way for more growth?

Some spots dried out but there’s green growth underneath. Can I snip the dry or bleached ends off?

New growth in my bog!

Just sharing this!! It's been super slow going(possibly because of the heat and star moss that's everywhere) but my sphagnum seems to finally be taking off.

S. Portoricense actually survived the summer drought

While digging through some plants last night I found that my S. Portoricense that I once thought was dead is actually still alive.
