Next time you are thinking of going there, let me know (if you want company). I live about a half hour away from it & have gone there for the past 40+years! There are still other places around to see aquatic bladderwort, & there used to be some nice places to see Dews, however development...

Ah! Peeked in just to wish you a Happy Birthday Butch! I Just heard (From Kath), who mentioned you outta da blue... I am still looking into that, but for now, hope you are having a nice day. Will be in touch LONGERRRR again as soon as I can. Take care!

Nice looking! Thanks for giving credit! Glad it helped someone! You might try putting some live shagnum in a pot under the rain also. I have found it eventually grows like mad in the "rain". Eventually over-runs the plants to the point where you can't even see the plants! I have to trim mine a...

I also Just stopped in to wish all a Merry Christmas, Happy Holiday, etc. Hope all goes well for all of you. Paul

This is sort of like the "Aprilaire" humidifiers they sell for home humidification. In fact when using a pump to spread the water, one of Aprilaire's filters may work even better, as they have a coating that will help spread out the water without the calcium build-up preventing the water from...

To me, having the tip of the top sprout doesn't mean too much water, however it does seem to be suffering a bit of transplant shock. That is where the roots (mostly tips & root hairs) are damaged enough to where the plant can't support itself, as the roots can't absorb enough water to keep it...

Always love the experiments Butch! :bigthumpup:

Hi, this cross is interesting, however I have a quick question. You mentioned: “....and I should have more seed (reciprocal cross) when the 'Leah Wilkerson' pod ripens in a few weeks.” I thought the cross you have here, you listed as Sarracenia 'Leah Wilkerson' × rosea "Crestview, FL" I am...

I have an experimental terrarium/grow-chamber I am testing, and will have need in the near future for some poorly growing, near dieing (BUT NOT DEAD) shrinking, slow-going UltraHighland/Highland Neps. I am hoping that this will be a perfect test to see if the chamber is working up to par, if...

Fantastic scenery Butch! But that hat thing has to go! It looks like MickeyMouse ears that got tossed about when you rolled the RZR! It does look a bit more muddied than you started, but that helps confirm my MickeyMouse ears getting tossed about when you rolled the RZR theory! Joking aside...

Of course many flowers have a noticable scent, however as to whether they can smell, I would say definitely not! They don't have any noses! :-D

Thanks for the heads-up! Time to run out & get a bunch of forever stamps again. (At least they are making nice ones & not just those generic ones.) As far as rates & such are concerned, while I really do think that near $6 is a lot for sending a tiny box (and it has become smaller over the...

Heli of a Surprise! While it got a bit stressful at first, watching how others were having good results with their Av-Heli-Hybrid seed from you Butch, I worried I might have made a mistake in sharing the winnings with others, as all I saw was endless days of inactivity & lack of life! Even...

Bobby! I didn't know whether to post on this thread or on your other, but wanted to let you know how things were going on the Hookeri tubers. As a picture says it all: Also wanted to thank you again for sharing. I wouldn't have even had this chance if it weren't for your help & offer. The...
