Hello. I'm Toni and I come from Finland. I've grown carnivorous plants since 2009 and kept a blog (at http://jigsawcarnivores.blogspot.com/) about them starting from 2011. If you also use CPUK you find me there under username Deadly Weapon, which is where my username in here comes from. At the...
Hi All!!
I'm a former gardener from Orange County, currently running a small specialty nursery out of my back yard (mostly terrarium plants and bromeliads). I've kept carnivorous plants here and there, mostly some of the larger nepenthes that can live outside in my shade house. I have two...

The shade house is full to overflowing… I finally got the time to put together a trade list over the weekend. I am primarily interested in nepenthes; however, I also grow cacti, succulents, bromeliads, and other CPs so please make an offer if you see something that interest you. I would...
Happy Mother's Day! Say hi to your mom for me. lol.
This mother's day I got my mom an orchid. I have absolutely no idea what species it is or how to care for it and I was hoping you peeps could educate me.

Here are some of my Poison Dart Frogs.
I've only had frogs for a year, but they are great pets and not alot of work.
Plus you get to plant a terrarium. I use LEDs to light them all.
The bromeliads love LEDs brightness and they put out so much less heat than other lights.
dendrobates azureus...

When I first built my shade house I thought that I would never run out of space or have plants that were too big.
But then I bought a few plants– ok, more than a few…
And others grew taller and taller…
Everybody was getting a bit cramped!
What to do?
My wife and daughter...
With the colder weather moving in I did my annual "I have too many plants" inventory. So here is the plan. Trades will get priority then if nothing works out they will be randomed off as giveaways. Winner would pay postage.
They will need to be mailed out on Monday no later, unless weather...
Hi,
I've recently started looking into raising CPs again. I grew up in Hawaii, raised orchids, bromeliads, tillandsias, and everything that I could get to grow. My parents did purchase me a Flytrap and that sparked my interest. Within a few months the local nurseries were bringing in other...

U. humboldtii plant
This is a small plant from an aerial stolon from one of my larger plants. Plants from these original seedlings have been producing 'paddles' 4-7" high and about 1.5" wide. However, I do not know if this is truly their adult size. For whatever reason, this species is rarely...
Hey, all. I have several small Cephalotus. I've decided to try a naturalistic terrarium with a lot of epiphytes, a wood/foam back wall, orchids, tillandsia and small bromeliads. Of course I'll still have CP's, but I'll be sticking to Drosera, a few small Nepenthes, Pinguicula and Utricularia...
