Took some shots after I mowed the lawn today. Things are coming along nicely.

Here are a couple of other large cultivars, which have been circulating for many years before the "B52" -- including the "Southwest Giant" (aka "Slack's Giant" and "G16"), attributed to Adrian Slack and his Marston Exotics nursery back in the 1980s, and "Dirk Ventham's Giant," (aka "G14") also...
Just a few weeks out of dormancy, one of my younger plants "awakened" with quite an appetite. Strangely enough, the trap still seems to be OK, even several days after that photo was taken . . .
Dionaea muscipula cv. "B52"
Dionaea muscipula cv. "B52"
While offered a bit later in the NASC Auction than I would have liked (we had a particularly wet winter in Northern California and everything looked like crap for far too long), here is a nice starter plant of Dionaea muscipula cv. "B52". It is a division from one...
Every year, I try to obtain a few older Dionaea rhizomes from anywhere and everywhere, in the hope of growing-out something interesting and unusual by Late Summer. After all, that was how I obtained my first B52.
We'll see . . .
Dionaea muscipula "Typical" -- 21 April 2010
It's an odd coincidence that I'm posting twice today about two different kinds of banding today.
This one is about B52, and has me kind of confused:
I received a B52 from tissue culture from David Conner, which came in a "clump" of two plants sharing a rhizome and were in the process of...
A few days ago I recieved a Dionaea muscipula B52 plant division and saw tiny red dots but I disregarded them. Today I was observing them closely and saw a couple moving and long story short, they are spider mites. So far I have been removing them manually with a wet Q-tip. I also collected...
Hey guys. Here's a few pics for Spring of some of my indoor plants - mostly the results of seeds and pullings.
Hope you like em. :)
A few of the Sarr seedlings...various hybrids - Thank you Travis/Pyro and Andy/adnedarn!!!
Another sarr seedling
This one's still holding his security...
The time has finally arrived for re-potting a slough of Dionaea -- something I now do annually, just as they emerge from dormancy; and it has certainly encouraged far more vigorous growth and increased size of my B52s and other cultivars over the years. Several of the plants are now in larger 15...
I decided to move my VFT's to a larger bog because I feel that a shallow tray wasn't the best venue for them. I got a larger, deeper pot and proceeded to uproot all my vfts from the old to the new. In there there's a number of plants - including B52, Justina Davis, Fused Tooth, Sawtooth, Red...
Pictures of the Sarr minibogs (and the vft container)...not much to see, but just in case someone's interested in how things are waking up for me (the s.rosea, d.capillaris, d.m. low giant and d.m. pink venus are new as of two days ago):
vfts: B52, Big Mouth, Low Giant, Dente, Home Depot...

Hi everyone I’m sad to say that my small collection of VFT was stolen today. so all I have left is a B52 that I still have in the fridge for its dormancy. If anyone is willing to trade a division of my B52 for “saw tooth,” 'Bohemian Garnet,' 'Fused Tooth,' 'Holland Red,' or Low Giant. pullings...

I got 10 sars and 2 VFTs - a B52 and a Justina Davis. Really nice! I sent nepenthes in trade. If he wants to reveal his identity and show what he got, he can!:banana2: :boogie::woot:
