Yo! I've been lurking this site for a while and now seems to be the best time to join. I've been growing sarracenia outdoors for about four years now. It all started with a S. flava and a Dionaea 'Akai Ryu'. Unfortunately my newbie mistakes during dormancy killed my first group of plants. The...

I've been increasingly interested in aquatic micro fauna lately, especially as the pondarium began to flourish with micro life last summer. Dang, I need a microscope! In the terrarium I started a giant clam shrimp culture in a deli cup. I have the little babies swimming around, plus a couple...

Are there any temperate CPs which absolutely should not be fertilized, however lightly? The plan for my in-ground is to have it dominated by Sarrs, and probably a Darlingtonia or two but to also have many associated plants such as Orchids, Meadow Beauty, Milkwort, Pipewort, etc. In addition...

Hey Peeps, I have a batch of 2-3in seedrown N.ventricosas I'd like to trade off for things I don't yet have. Things that I'm looking for are Neps of any kind, temperate pings of any kind, S.purpurea ssp purpurea, aquatic uritcularia and any of the large flowered south american species, and cobra...

it is a surface floating aquatic....fairly adaptable in regards to lighting but probably not so much when it comes to lower temps I would assume. far as i know it only propagates by division and may not be considered invasive in colder areas but be sure to check first. i have some extra that i...

I don't update this super often so ask me if you have any questions: Nepenthes: N. Muluensis x Lowii N. Ramispina three pure forms: ( 2 B.E. clones and another wild collected from the 70's) N. "Hopeful Monsters" = merilliana x ? N. Albomarginata "Camaroon Highlands" N. "Gentle" = Maxima x...

Hello lovely people of this forum. I ordered this lovely plant(Ultriculiaria Graminifolia) for an aquatic planted tank I've recently set up. I've done a fair amount of reading and I'm confident I know what to expect. Until just recently when I discovered this forum I had no idea what the...

Far as I know it has never been done but my Lowlanders seem to Love it! all of them are having growth spurts atm. The increased vegetation seems to make for a more stable humidity since the aquatic plants are not efficient at holding in water so they seem to aspirate much more heat and...

I recently lost some U.gibba which had been snuck into a fish tank I maintain with some java moss. I had noticed the bladders and very fine hairs coming out of them and kind of knew what the plant was. It was really more of a novelty to me and the aquarium owners untill my interest in CP's...

I go to the NC State Fair every year to eat tasty but terrible fair food and to see the plant displays. This year was pretty cool, nothing particularly special but I figured I would share it with you guys. A venus flytrap-esque salad grabber! IMG_3425 by mcmcnair The ferns that were on display...

the 2 plants in particular may be a little big for an aquarium but first is the water hyacinth............if i break off one of those little nodules, will it grow new roots? I see that it does naturally but was curious if it would work if I broke it off before it divides on it's own? I do root...

I have a submersible style terrarium and was looking for some aquatic plants to help with it. looking for something year round/no dormancy, likes warm water, something that builds vegetation above water, something small in size/root requirements but might be willing to try a floating plant as...

Hello everyone, I just recently decided to give up all my aquatic gardens and move to more terrestrial plants. I am starting a carnivorous plant collection and a succulent plant collection. It will be a little challenging since Phoenix, AZ is a very dry climate, but building a system that will...
