    Australian Utricularia Germination ?

    I've recently acquired seeds of U.dunlopii, U.fistulosa and U.leptolectra. Has anyone ever germinated seeds of these species or even grown them for that matter ? Any advice would help. Thanks.

    Hi, I am curious about whether anyone here has attempted to grow red Aldrovanda, Australian or Hungarian, and were you successful? They seem to be for the most part, unobtanium. Other attempts to find out and or obtain some have been unsuccessful or are stalled. While on the subject, does...

    My techniques for the harvesting of Heliamphora pollen.

    Harvesting of Heliamphora pollen is one of those things that was very simple once I learned how. Much of the issue came in not knowing when to harvest. When the flower first opens, the anthers are lower than the stigma and perpendicular to the pistil (see image). As the flower matures the...

    Giant Australian stick bug

    Here's some pics of a Giant Prickly Stick Insect, Extatosoma tiaratum. I think it's a female. She is not mine, she's on loan from somebody. I think she looks like something you would see in Mad Max or some post apocalyptic movie :D Higher resolution versions can be found on my flickr page.
