    Anybody have any temperate Pings?

    LF: D. capensis with location info

    I just lost a wonderful, several-year-old palm tree of a D. capensis last month and now am missing it. Rather than a generic form, I would prefer one that has location info (as long as I'm wishing, I'd prefer one of the more unusual locations like Montagu Pass, Palmiet River, Gordons Bay, etc -...

    Rootless Sarracenia Division?

    Ok, so while I was dividing my Sarracenia today, I goofed pretty bad and accidentally broke off a growing point without any roots...do you think the little guy will make it? This won't really impact my collection as a whole (I've got 20 more where this guy came from), but I like to think that...

    Pinguicula macrophylla

    Wondering about direct experience in cultivating this plant. Mine is not doing well. Dropped most of its leaves a day or two after potting. Is growing, but pretty slowly. Also, there is a worrisome dark coloration along the midribs of some new leaves. Its in 1:1:1 peat, sand, pumice in a...

    My Heliamphora collection

    What up? Ive grown H. heterodoxa x minor for a while but really never got into helis because of their special needs. Recently someone offered me lts of divs so I said why not. I put them in a wine chiller with temps ranging from 50-67F and RH at 70%+ at all times. I'm growing them under a 36w...

    :( my power is out

    A tree fell on my power line Monday night. The power lasted a few hours after and then went out. The power company estimated it will be maybe next week before its restored. No power with record lows for the year. I was able to save some of my collection but couldn't take all of my plants with...

    Jpappy's porch growing thread

    Jpappy's porch growing photo thread Got a bunch of new plants in today and ready to start my outdoor collection. All US natives and hybrids at the moment.

    Some Stranger Plants

    Figured I might as well put up a photo thread of my humble collection since I'm taking pictures anyway for records. Let's start with N. rafflesiana x ampullaria. The supplier said that despite its heritage it was growing well with the other highlanders. I don't doubt them given the altitude...

    Reminiscenses of a Sarracenia grower

    In about 1968, when I was living in Westminster, California. I was an avid organic gardener, In the back yard, I had an organic vegetable garden, not very large (about 10' x 40'), but it contained a large variety of plants. I had two bee hives atop a grape arbor. I also kept a rooster in one...
