Agapetes serpens and 'Ludgvan Cross' Beautiful "Blueberries". Trade/Giveaway.
Agapetes is a genus of Old World (Asian) blueberries which I believe grow in some of the same areas as highland Nepenthes. I think the center of their range may be slightly North, often into the Himilayan foothills...
Around 15 years ago, probably, I gave my mom a rooted cutting of a seedling plant of Nepenthes burkei x truncata (purchased in 1995 as a seedling from Tom Kahl). The plant grew and pitchered beautifully in my mom's kitchen window for years--a North-facing window in the SF Bay Area. The...
So is this a concern?
I cut it back to this.
I have to do this every few weeks. It isn't a big deal, I just worry I will accidently cut off a trap. I am tempted to remove all of the moss to help avoid such a tragedy.
Begonia bogneri is a very odd Begonia, as its leaves are grasslike, and it's a miniature. It's a plant from a warm, wet part of Madagascar. It's tuberous, although it does not have an obligate dormancy, grown indoors. For whatever reason, it's gotten a reputation as a difficult plant, tends...
Passiflora foetida has intricate sticky bracts around its buds, flowers, and fruits. It can definitely trap insects there, but whether it fits the standard definitions of carnivory is dubious. Some claim yes, but it seems that the consensus at the moment is that Passiflora foetida is not...
SO I bought this little Rafflesiana a few weeks ago, but Im becoming increasingly worried
about the plant.
It has a few dead leaves On the lower portion of the stem.
I noticed 3 or 4 small fungal growths on the dead leaves, but
I decided to check the lower stem as well, just to make sure...
Well, I am finally done with second rounds of midterms in school and have some brain capacity to deal with winter care for my plants.
It is indeed too cold for my nepenthes for winter as the outdoor temperature in my area hovers around 40's.
Honestly, I can't find egg crates anywhere. except...
So I have an unid'd nepenthes that has been on a window sil for a few years now. It has two growth points, and the odlest one is now like a foot or so of dead vien with a few healthy leaves at the end. Recently, it seems like the newer leaves are gettign smaller and smaller. Any advice? Should I...
Ok, so i'm very new to carnivorous plants, I got a VFT 2 years ago and just this year started adding more to my collection. And just very recently started looking into acquiring more and research. At the moment I have a VFT, a D. capensis x spatulata( i think), a purple, and white top pitcher...
so ya, two of my pitchers have white mold in them. Tons and tons of ants but not enough digestive fluid.
So the question is should i cut off the pitchers? or just let it mold
I need to cut this one before winter sets in or it will completely overrun everything by spring so here is the deal. I will be cutting this Nep at the base of the plant were the soil line is. I have done this a few times and my potted Nep has always grown back, I have NEVER tried to root the...
Hi, so i brought my plant inside ; its hanging from a hook in a bathroom window.
there is a vent above the plant which is pulled close - any issues about the vent?
most of the window hits the plant with light, icluding the pods, but there is some leaves that are not. - any issues with that?
the...
Hi,
The worst of summer is past, and I was thinking the vining tip of this plant is not doing much now, and I am planning to cut it off soon. If you would like to have it, do the numbers thing, first is 1, etc., and I will do the RNG thing on Friday or Saturday if this week. Shipping via...
I've been promising the pics of my Yard o' Pings for the better part of the summer, but I keep forgetting them. This evening I was mowing the lawn and saw the plants and remembered that a bunch of you guys wanted to see them, so here they are! About half of these pics show plants that have...
Up for grabs today are 4 packs of Drosera capillaris seed that came as long arm form. The plants don't look specifically long armed to my untrained eye, but easy grows none the less. Said to have dormancy requirements, my plants keep trucking along with little change other than the occasional...
I recently moved and I don't think my d. filiformis is handling it all that well. Any suggestions on how to help it out? I cut off all that was brown (it's my understanding that brown parts down photosynthesize), did that help or not matter?
Also, what are the nodules near the base of plant...
This will be a thread mostly consisting of my carnivorous plants, but also some other random plant photos from time to time.
To start, these are some pictures of the plants that I grow indoors in my basement. I don't have any current photos of plants that I have outside on the deck. Since I...
Much to my surprise, three of my Cephalotus produced some seed this year. I cut off the flower scapes this morning and was about to toss them out but noticed a few blooms appeared to have made seed. It turns out there was quite a bit of seed there!
I'm going to offer two lots of at least 12...
Every once in awhile a hobbyist sends me a sundew that has a flower stalk. Shipped sundews almost always arrive in shock and they lose their dew. Flower stalks always stall for me and I end up having to cut them off, in disappointment. Do stalks ever survive shipping and continue growth?

Rules
-Be willing to send me $5 for shipping
