crosses

I got three N. spathulata crosses about two months ago and have been growing them in a spare greenhouse at school. They have been growing well and have increased leaf size, but all of the pitchers have aborted. Conditions are full sun, day temps: 70-75, night temps 50-55, moderate...

Hey guys! This past year, I decided to cross my Sarracenias for the first time. Now, I have some seeds looking to find a home! For this giveaway, as long as you have 300 posts on the forum, simply pick a number from 1-100 and you'll be entered! I do the 300 posts thing to avoid giving away to...

I just got some greenhouse space at work, so I've started to grow Nepenthes again after taking a break for the better part of the decade. A nursery I've gotten plants from before is offering two crosses I'm interested in growing, N. truncata x merrilliana "Caesar", and N. "thorellii" x (truncata...

Mother Nature fooled me this year and I was surprised to find more Sarracenia seeds then I was expecting. So I am sharing the wealth! These are open pollination seeds and therefore I only know 1 of the parents. I make no claim of viability or traits of the seeds. If you are interested in up to...

I'm getting back into growing Nepenthes after taking a break for the better part of the decade. I'll be ordering my plants later in the week, and I've noticed that there is a much larger range of hybrids available, especially hybrids between highland species that were rare in cultivation until...

Howdy all! This thread is where I will be hosting a bunch of giveaways of freshly harvested hybrid Nepenthes seeds from the female Unknown hybrid living at the NCSU greenhouses which we have affectionately named Nepenthes "Wolfplant" our best guess for what the parents of The Wolfplant are...

Hi I have been hunting around various seed selling web sites in the hope of expanding my meagre Drosera collection into something more exotic. Then it occurred to me that I ought to ask you guys first...yes?! Does anyone please have any of the following Droserae (or similar) and is willing...

Okay, my current setup consists of a three tiered, large grow rack enclosed with Plexiglas but with gaps at the corners and an open bottom, no glass (so I covered the rack with plastic). This rack has hinged doors so it's hard to totally enclose. I also have a large enclosed tank in the same...

Ever wonder what an impossible hybrid would look like? Take Sarracenia minor x Juncus spiralis, for example: (Mass, turn your head sideways until ican fix it. :p) What fun crosses have YOU drawn up? Share!

Yo! I've been lurking this site for a while and now seems to be the best time to join. I've been growing sarracenia outdoors for about four years now. It all started with a S. flava and a Dionaea 'Akai Ryu'. Unfortunately my newbie mistakes during dormancy killed my first group of plants. The...

Jerry had a bit of a get together the other day, and I did my usual taking of a million photos... Seedling tables for the 1-3 year old plants. The newly sprouting seeds are kept covered in a different area and along the sides of this greenhouse. An amazing seedling I found and tried...

my Sabre cutting is finally growing and looking good , it has two growth points , ( so it could possibly be cut in two and the upper would be need to be rooted). I am looking for a a few neps in particular . I may hold on to it, as it has been with me for a while and i would like to grow it...

I will ship around five different hybrid crosses I've made over the past two years (25+ per packet) including: S. 'Leah Wilkerson' x purpurea "Brunswick Beauty" S. 'Leah Wilkerson' x rosea (the giant rosea clone offered in another auction thread was male parent) S. 'Leah Wilkerson' x "Red...

Opening bid $5 for a small pot of seedlings of this hybrid. Correction: Photo what the plant will look like all grown up, courtesy of my friend, Carl Mazur, can be found on his blog here: http://zone6b.files.wordpress.com/2011/08/dsc05514.jpg The seedlings you will receive were F1 crosses of...

I am just starting to manage Weber State University's CP collection after being absent for two years and I need to get some pings identified. Many of the tags were written with marker and the labels are no longer legible. I am in the process of repotting all the plants into a better ping media...

I have never collected seed from any of my plants and now have a quick question in regards to pollination. I have one of the "lovely" purpurea 'smurf' plants that is current in dormancy in the cold garage under some cfls with other plants. It is forming a flower bud at the crown... so I want to...

Do any of you grow Hippeastrum (or Amaryllis)? I currently have a ton, and have created several hybrids of my plants. I currently have 40 or so seed grown ones from well over 100. I've let drought and rot take these, to make plants even easier to care for. These seedlings are of various crosses...

These guys were started early last year. Thanks to those that sent along extra seed back then!! They have been living under 2 CFBs running for 16 hours a day. I don't want to run them for 24 since I don't think the VFTs can take that (plus the DW doesn't "want the neighbors to think i am running...

Recently, i've wanted to try germinating Nepenthes seed, so yeah, here I am. I'm looking for common Nepenthes seed, any species/hybrid will do but I do have a particular fondness for truncata and maxima. :) I have some Darlingtonia Californica seed for trade. Also have some trumpet vine seeds...

I have a Nepenthes Ventricosa x Spathulata that is in flower now. It is a female so im looking for some pollen the pollen donor will get 50% of all seeds produced. it is a medium flower so not much pollen is needed. Iam looking for pollen from any not to comman nepenthes like alata even...
