Since carnivorous availability changes with the seasons here, I figured I'd run into Lowe's to see if they'd started getting some things in since it's warming up a bit now. Lo and behold, they had a relatively fresh shipment of plants in. VFTs, VFTs... tons of VFTs. Until I spotted two cubes...
I live pretty far up north and temps are still way too cold to bring temperate plants outside, but I checked on them just the other day and they're ALL awake... The ones that didn't wake up much earlier and are now dead from fungus gnats that must have over wintered with them, lack of light, and...
Here I report what has happened in my test jars filled with gelrite-gelled media and some species, apx. 1 month growth on such medium:
First, here is my control jar of weedy d.capensis. The proliferative growth shows that the composition of the medium should be fine for common drosera...
Hello!
I would like to share some info and pics of my new TC jars. I have had issues with food store grade agar last fall and because several batches shifted the pH of the media several points up, I have lost some cultures. That was the last straw for me and I decided to upgrade my TC work to...

Hello friends,
I've recently become interested in the Cobra Lilly.
I'm wondering about the two varieties out there. I live in San Diego, on top of a hill with constant breeze. It doesn't get too hot here, the low 80s are the normal highs for summer.
So what variety, the mountain or the...
Can you guys help me make it official? I've been holding onto these 3 with the hopes that they may make a miraculous comeback.

I just cut this stolon runner from the mother plant today. The pitchers are last year's. The pitchers only get red like that for me in the winter but the plant only gets full sun in the afternoon. It may color up better with more full sun. The mother plant is fully...
Up for auction, is a nice, well established, young darlingtonia that was a rescue last year from lowes...it has since then grown very well for me, and produces pitchers quite reliably, and will tolerate higher temperatures and soil on the dry side for a short time (tested it out while i had it...
