I took the stolons of some graminifolia that was being grown as an affixed aquatic (I guess technically, although it was really only affixed to itself) and potted them to be grown terrestrially. I had some success but would change a few variables and wanted to share my experiences...

So my dad has aquired a variety of different acryllic containers from work, amogn with are some 1 1/3 gallon cubes. Here's something I'm picture and would like osme input: A 2x2 arrangement of these cubes together, but with each cube looking like a different biome. My first thoughts are one...

A few days ago I was looking at some Utricularia australis I acquired in a recent trade and found that it was sprouting a new plantlet from a long stolon: Here you can see the length of the stolons in relation to the plant: I thought this was interesting because I have also seen this on...

Recently I cleaned out one of my water features and have a baggie with a more of less fist sized clump of an aquatic utric, maybe some hitch hikers, aquatic snails, could be a sprig or two of Aldrovanda there, not sure. A bunch of small duckweed as well. There are some lotus plants that had...

You are bidding on a starter/plug of Utricularia dichotoma. I have grown this species both as a terrestrial and sub affixed aquatic. Does need a change in seasons to induce flowering. Due to size it will be shipped via USP first class mail. USA only I cannot provide Phytosanitary...

Let's get this started right, kiddies. Up for grabs is a starter culture of ALDROVANDA. This setup was recommended to me by Paul (pearldiver) and it has worked beautifully for three years with stock I received from him. Winning bidder will receive: *2-3 sprigs of Aldrovanda *Utricularia gibba...

I have a few Utricularia bremii plants for trade. It is a temperate aquatic native to Europe. Not all of my plants have broken dormancy yet, so I also have turions available. I am mainly looking for Utricularia and subtropical Drosera species, but might trade for other carnivorous plant genera...

Utricularia dichotoma Up for sale is a small plug taken from my parent pot. This is an easy growing terrestrial/affixed aquatic species, growing well in moist to flooded conditions. Small leaves and large bladders produce a mat along the soil surface from which tall stalks grow, bearing 1-4...

I have a few odds and ends left over from planting a small aquarium and am offering them here for only $6 postage to cover a small Priority box. Plants are several stems of a red Ludwigia species (I believe), a nice piece of a small leaf cultivar of Java Fern, a small Crypt. ciliata, a stem of...

SIDESHOW TURTLES I love the unusual, and a couple of years ago I bought a group of strange hatchling Red Eared Sliders. They are now 2 years and 3 months old (and over 4 inches). They are natural deformities that I’ve raised up past the sensitive stage. Now they are available to you! They...

I used to have 3 shelves with all T5 HO setup. This year, I have reduced it to just 1 shelf while the other two will be LEDs. On a separate rack, I also have LED lamps (red/blue). All the setups are in ambient humidity which is consistently high by most standards. Reason for change: My...

Hello you all. I am a brazilian biologist and I am running my doctoral research on the floristics, ecology and conservation of the Paraná State (southern Brazil) carnivorous plants. During my fieldwork , I found a new aquatic Utricularia species. The closest species is Utricularia striata, and...

Thanks to Pearldiver I now have a thriving community of aquatic utrics in my 20L planted tank. Problem is they are growing a bit too well and starting to choke out the other plants. There's U.gibba, an unknown species that looks like gibba but is much coarser and has black traps, U.foliosa (?)...

Another aquatic up for grabs. Two starter portions of U. aurea. I obtained this earlier in the summer, and it grew/grows like gangbusters! Filling the top of a ten gallon tank and then blooming in a shower of yellow flowers. It then produced seed pods with thin six sided seeds. Do the...

I have been asked for my growlist many times and I am really bad about keeping one so here goes (As of this posting this list is incomplete and only includes my Aldrovanda, Genliseas and Utricularias). My Interests in the Carnivorous plant world Primary Interests - Utricularias - Genliseas -...

...jar. A Christmas tree shaped jar ended up in my garage. It was probably meant to go to storge with the other three tonnes of Christmas periphernalia but didn't make it. I have decided to repurpose it for plant culture, specifically Aldrovanda. Paul (pearldiver) got me started with this genus...

Eight Marimo moss balls for trade. They are larger than a golf ball, smaller than a billiard ball. A cool addition for your aquarium! Looking for: Driftwood Ant Plants Reptile stuff Bucephalandra Riparium plants Riparium trellis-rafts Hygrophila pinnatifida Freshwater Invertebrate Books...

Recently my Genlisea flexulosa took a nosedive after stalling out, shrinking and eventually disappearing. I thought I had a multiple trade deal arranged over the last year or so, but that stalled out for unknown reasons. If anyone out there has mutiple plants for trade or one or two, let me...

my aquatic Utricularia, hasnt produced bladders at all since last time it grew them. Why is this? I need help as to what may be causing this? It doesnt look as happy as it used to and its growing much slower. I researched its natural habitat, the Okavango delta and it says It preffers bright...
