    Heliamphora and Cephalotus in the same Terrarium?

    CP Exhibit in Columbus, OH

    A few weeks back, I made the 2+ hour trek to see this exhibit in Columbus. If anybody else is thinking of doing the same, let me tell you...it ain't worth it. The giant fake CP statues are great. The 9 ft VFT that closes when you push the button twice is awesome, but it is in a greenhouse...

    Can I water my Mexican Pinguicula with tap-water?

    Can I water my Mexican Pinguicula with tap-water? Mexican butterworts are known to grow in richer soils, so I'm wondering if watering them with tap water would harm them. Should I try tap water or stick with rain water?

    Suggestions for gnats

    I'm trying to select a plant that is suitable for a beginner and will take care of the gnats, fruit flies, and possibly mosquitoes that are rampant in my area. It seems that butterworts and sundews are most popular for these problems. I'm leaning toward the sundews, since they can eat slightly...

    Small pots (2-3 inches) and tags

    Where can I buy the hard plastic pots of this small size and the hard plastic tags, not the soft ones that wrap around the plant? The place that I was getting these from locally has stopped carrying them. I want the pots typically used for butterworts or sundews and not sheets of plug trays...
