Hello all,:banana2: I have not been active on this forum since 2008. Has it really been that long already? Oh my gosh! Since I hit 40 some years back, time just races by me like I’m a blob of cement or something. I've been a real slug the last few of years as far as the pursuit of cps go...

Thought someone would find this interesting http://www.sciencewa.net.au/topics/environment-a-conservation/item/1839-scientists-discover-carnivorous-plant-using-sticky-catapulting-tentacles.html Below is copied from the above article..... "The study found the snap-tentacle movement is not...

Yesterday, I went inside to have a look around. The place mostly sells orchids, succulents, overprices bonsai, bromelaids etc. I was looking around and found a tray full of a few vft's, some sundews, and nepenthes. Some of the vft's looked dead, some were healthy, the sundews were all dead, and...

I have been everywhere looking for square pots. Nurseries only carry round. Can someone point me in the right direction?

I do not know if there are any flashlight / torch fans here or not. I'm certainly not obsessed as some people are. I just like a good flashlight. (I know I'm not obsessed since my first good flashlight I bought back in 2007. This second one I just got today...) Anyway my first and beloved good...

I'm freaking out... Last week I found the cottony "growth" on my S. rubra and isolated the plant. Now I'm finding the little ***** on my N. ventricosa (pitchers only it seems), D. 'pretty rosette' (flower stalk) and the VFT (in and out of the traps). They've also since been isolated. I'm super...

Right- I've been meaning to make this post for a while, so here goes. For a while now, I've been wondering how to create the right habitat for nepenthes given my own conditions. I'm not one to rush into doing something blindly, and my attempts at making growing areas for them have not quite...

Hopefully this isn't a repetitive post but here it goes... So I live in San Francisco and I can find bulk horticultural sand around here. However, in Upstate NY that is a different story. I will be in NY at the end of August putting in a bog garden and I've been calling stores over there to...

Hey guys, So, last week, my friend and I decided to order some plants from an unnamed vendor. All of the plants came un-potted and, with the exception of two, looked rather sickly. This is especially true for the ampullaria we ordered. The day it arrived it already looked a bit thin, but two...

Soylent Green references aside I imagine certain conspiracy theorists will go wild over this: Next-Generation Gelatin Could be Derived from Humans Instead of Animals Something to reflect on over your lunch break today: Scientists are developing a new approach for producing human-derived...

I dunno if this is common knowledge or what, but I figured i'd share this. So I went to Lowes looking for a few things, including the cheap little plastic seedling pots most places carry.. And after a thorough inspection, found out Lowes didnt carry them. So I grabbed a big bag of sand and...

I haven't been able to find any definitive information on this, so here goes: Is it legal to bring in a potted plant, intended for household keeping, into the US from Canada without import permits or phytosanitary certificates if that plant is not restricted or endangered or otherwise on a list...

Ok so this is one of those plants I had kind of forgotten that I have always secretly loved. (You guys know what I'm talking about*...) *Right? After a wide search of the all the photofinder pictures of this species, and a quick scan of an old thread it appears that this plant either displays...

It took about four hours for me to get there , but I will go again if I'm invited. He took down my e-mail so HOPE HOPE . John is a very nice guy. On his tour, if any questions got asked, they got answered, it took about 2 hours, which for me went too fast , even though he said it would take...

I actually wrote this up as a PM rant to many of the Terra utric growers and decided I'd post it as a topic (understanding that it might get censored)(but knowing it doesn't mention any US retailers specifically...) It almost seems unfair that the Europeans have such an embarrassment of riches...
