I need them for one of my snake vivariums as I am sick of having to tear it apart every 2 months because the poths grow so freaking fast. Would prefer a varigated form but will...

    ultimate truths of CP growing

    The CP universe is governed by these rules 1. There will never be a convenient, cheap solution for terrarium cooling. 2. 95% of all drosera seed circulating in cultivation comes from a guy with a Drosera spatulata plantation in his basement. 3. The red form always costs more 4. The coolness...

    All you ever wanted to know

    So I recall a while back someone somewhere made a comment that there was not a lot of information on these guys and that that was the reason no one grew them or took up offers for them. I was drafting up something for a friend and decided to go whole hog so here you go. And please remember...

    Alphawolf sent me this page. http://www.livescience.com/forcesofnature/050627_strange_lakes.html This doesn't explain everything, like if this is true then how come most of the bays are dry.

    Sorry for the blurriness,  but my digital camera is old and cheap.  Any help appreciated.  Apparently there are a couple of different plants in this pot, I think a rubra is in there, too.   An aerial view:

    Triangle bog trip photos

    This bog trip was excellent. Although not everyone who wanted to go could attend. Mark, Brian, and I were able to make the trip. The bog was easy to find once we obtained the aerial photo of the bog and roads. Triangle Bog has been the best bog to visit to date. This is probably one of the...

    pitcher smell

    GAH!! I just went to my shadehouse, and I almost didn't come back alive!! There's a stench in there, but it's not the normal rotting smell from too many insects in the pitchers. It's more like a sweet smell, but a nasty sweet smell, if that makes any sense (sickly sweet???). :/ It's really...
