Hey everyone,
been growing some carnivorous plants for a little while now here in WA but I've loved them since I was a kid (well, to be fair I'm just a big kid nowadays still haha!).
Looking forward to learning more on here especially in the area of growing from seed and meeting new people...
Are there good source of aqueous smoke water for seed germination in the US? There are some products in South Africa, and Australia.
There are pretty good evidences that aqueous smoke water can break seed dormancy, and Karrikinolide (KAR1) is likely to be the active component. I know some...

Hey all
I am currently working in Darwin in the north of Australia and spend most of my weekends messing around in the sandy swamps around a place called Howard Springs. Allen Lowrie did a trip up here way back in 1991 when he discovered Byblis aquatica and there are several species of Drosera...
The NECPS finally decided to take some action on our very overgrown bog at the Roger Williams Botanical Center in Providence RI.
Here is the bog before the demo. It was extremely overgrown with grasses, sedges, ferns, oxalis and many other various weeds. Plants had just been stuck in there...

Allen Lowrie's Carnivorous Plants of Australia: Magnum Opus (2013) lists some 241 species of carnivorous plants at the time of publication. 163 of those are Drosera. Of these 29 are newly named. Some are new species formally described for the first time. Some were renamed as the "true" species...
Australian Drosera in Cultivation
Allen Lowrie's Carnivorous Plants of Australia Magnum Opus at time of publication Dec. 16, 2013 listed some 241 species. Many of these were new species or reassignment of ranks (subspecies or varieties). A few had been in cultivation before even having been...
Aestivation - dormancy or hibernation in response to high temperatures and conditions.
Thanks to the recent hot weather some of the pygmy Drosera in my collection have started to form stipule buds or aestivaculae (singular: aestivacula). Here are a few examples in various stages:
Drosera...
So I joined this forum over a year ago and never really participated much. However, I've learned alot from the great community here and am hoping to share the little knowledge I have and gain some more! I'm currently in college (Penn State) and spending the summer at my parents farm before...
Acacia melanoxylon is a very common street tree in my city. It's considered the "sister species" of Acacia koa, a Hawaiian species prized for it's wood. I understand the thinking is that Acacia melanoxylon (or it's ancestor), made it from Australia to Hawaii, where it diverged slightly...
Let me introduce myself I am from Melbourne Australia.
I am a beginner to Terrascaping, but certainly not to Aquariums and Aquascaping.
At the moment I am planning my third Terrascape "Fern Gully" in a 140lt Bow fronted tank.
I will post a few photos as soon as I can.

In December I purchased 30 or so seeds from Australia of D. stolonifera, and was able to germinate 3 plants. Through PM's to different members I tried to find out how long it usually took for the plants to begin their upright growth, or if this would not occur until a few years of growth. With...
Drosera hamiltonii - two different clones (as labeled) West Australia and Esperance Region, SW Australia
D. hamiltonii is a fairly easy to cultivate rosetted sundew from Western Australia. This species apparently is self-incompatible so genetically different plants are needed to produce seed...
You are bidding on 1 packet of Drosera burmannii seeds from plants with location data of Humpty Doo, NT, Australia.
This is my favorite form of my favorite carnivorous plant. If you feed it regularly (and it has an enormous appetite) it will grow remarkably quickly after germination (and...
So I spent a little over half of June and all of July of this year in Borneo and Australia. I flew quite literally, around the world and it was absolutely incredible. I flew from RDU to JFK where I spent eight hours sitting around on the airport floor. Then I flew directly to Frankfurt, Germany...
After speaking with several members here among other growers, I have realized that there are more misconceptions about successfully growing these plants than I had thought. I wrote the care sheet below last year for the NECPS members to use as a guide for their cultivation and I hope that it can...
