Hey Folks It has just come to our attention that the company that handles our international mailings of CPN really botched it big, and shipped all our international issues to an old business address of the ICPS. This is an act of creative stupidity quite breathtaking in its boldness. We've...

Okay, first thing first. The following people were sent their palnts on Saturday: Smith Hartley Fre8train Hedderly Harris Wallace Myers Shummway Estes Dodds Schempp So that means I am still waiting to hear from 7 of you Next order of business. I used shorthand IDs on everything I sent so...

Hey all, regarding the recent CPN issue and the article on S. oreophila composed by Michael, the one photo of the oreophila plants really matches my form for the description of "heavily veined". Anywho I thought I would capture the early buds because they happened to catch my eye....

I am expecting some turions of this species recently featured in the CPN December issue. Can anyone tell me a good storage method? Thanks!

My CPN came in today and I must say it is a good one. It has a great conservation story about Sarracenia Purpurea var. Montana in Georgia. In it there is a story of a landowner who thought he'd help out the poor pitcher plants with fertilizer, but Ron Determann saved the day, and now there is a...

Maybe I am being a pill but it seems that of late every time someone puts up a picture of a plant for ID everyone insists that the plant is "such and such" cultivar. The one I am seeing the most is pretty much every S. x wriglyeana is being identified as 'Scarlete Belle' when they are in fact...

Just had to tell everybody! Fernando Rivadavia describes 4 species that "were previously mistaken for other similar or related taxa" in Brazil, in the Sept. 2003 issue.  All those of you who have been sitting on the fence about joining the ICPS are really missing out! Catcha later!  I gotta...

Hi Nepenthophiles, a few hours ago I posted the first ever published color photographs of Nepenthes tenuis in the German GFP-forum. Due to time shift, I expected to have a few more hours before having to post them here as well, but did not think about the Germans here in the Pet Flytrap...

Hi, Does anyone here grow any of the South American (esp Brazilian) sundews? I have recently obtained seed of D.ascendens and D.communis, and was wondering if you have any hints/tips for these species? (e.g. when to sow, temperature range, humidity, etc - couldn't find much info on the net)...

Does anyone have information or pictures of the New pot design for tuberous Drosera from the sep. 01 issue of CPN?

Does anyone have information or pictures of the New pot design for tuberous Drosera from the sep. 01 issue of CPN?

I discovered an article in the June 2000 issue of the Carnivorous Plant Newsletter, CPN. It presents and advocates a new growing medium for all Nepenthes. It contains absolutely no organic material, so it has several advantages and a couple of disadvantages. If you don't have the CPN issue, you...
