Closed for the season - Enjoy the snow all you yanks!
I will have more rooted cutting available in the spring - - and that starts early here....
STILL MORE LEFT LOOK BELOW - I am sending out mostly 2 node cuttings except where requested.
I have finally had to bring most of the neps in the...
One illustration which always me struck as a kid, searching through my father's old collection of scientific books, was a Rube Goldberg-style "mouse-trap" analogy of the very complex nature of a Utricularia trap, which appeared, complete with legend, in 1942's The Carnivorous Plants by Francis...
fyi this is my first year where i am really trying to grow carnivorous plants.
Ok so recently I purchased a bunch of carnivorous plants. Varying from aldrovanda, drosera, pings, nepenthes, to utricularia.
I have been growing them in my room with my window open so that they would get plenty of...
Hey guys,
Back in the mid to late 1990's I heard from an old friend of mine in Virginia (USA) that he was going to sell his house and retire. He had a small pond in his property in which he had the Japanese (both Kyoto and Tokyo mixed) strains of Aldrovanda growing, and was going to be drained...

I'm looking for any material that can be used to produce a ceph (cutting, leaf pulling, etc).
I've only been growing since this past spring so I do not have a lot to offer, so I am willing to accept unrooting leaf pullings.
I can trade either/both of the following:
S. rubra ssp. gulfensis...
a while ago i got several strands of aldrovanda(thanks Mike!!!) all are doing great and some have a red inside like their VFT cousins!. a few surprises have come up since i got them: a flower bud!- i was really surprised by this. currently its just sitting at the top a little growth. hopefully...
Hello, this is my first time here, but I have been CPing and reading about CPs for more than a year now.
My setup is pretty simple. I have a 20 gallon with a glass top and one corner of the glass is cut out for ventillation. The humidity is usually over 90% and temperature is usually around...
I just found some Azolla caroliniana (Fairy Moss) growing in my newly made Aldrovanda tank. I have heard that they have a symbiotic relationship with a type of cynobacteria which helps them fix nitrogen. Does this mean a big increase in nitrogen (which I know is bad for Aldrovanda) or will these...
I am looking for a daphnia "culture" that I could use to feed my aldrovanda (and betta, too). If you have some available that will grow well in 90F+ water (monia?) I would be willing to trade cp's for them. If you have another variety, let me know as I might still trade for them.
hi! :D
Feel free to contact me with questions/coments.
I hope you enjoy and i love to trade! (in the USA only, sorry!)

For the past two years, I've been growing Aldrovanda in my planted aquariums; I started with 5 strands, now I have more than 100 (and I've traded or given away about that much also). The Aldrovanda I grow is from Darwin, Australia, it is tropical and does not require dormancy. I received it as...
Here's the pic to prove it!
The green part is clearly the leaves of the plant, having a star-like appearance. The little brown proboscis-like thing with the black tip I'm guessing is a root...all plants first produce a root upon sprouting, Aldrovanda is no exception. This is the only time...

Ever wanted to try growing Aldrovanda? Here's your chance. I have handfuls of the stuff, I grow it in my planted aquariums. It is a tropical form from Darwin, Australia, which I received from a reputable source (a plant biologist from UConn). I've been growing this for about 3 years now, it...
