darlingtonia

Hi i thought I'd introduce myself, I'm JellyMama and i got into carnivorous plants a little over a year ago when my husband bought me a drosera spatulata. I'm currently growing a Darlingtonia, which ive had since last March, 4 Sarracenia's, 2 of which i only got last Friday, and a Drosera...

I never have posted anything in this thread and I wanted to share a couple pics.of my after repot Darlingtonia. <a href="http://s1154.photobucket.com/user/thelarge/media/DSC_0163.jpg.html" target="_blank"><img src="http://i1154.photobucket.com/albums/p538/thelarge/DSC_0163.jpg" border="0" alt="...

This Darlingtonia stolon had decided that the corner of the tray was as good place to take up residence. Unfortunately that selected corner is against the door frame of the Darlingtonia House so new larger pitchers were in serious danger of damage. Contrary to my usual procedure, which would be...

This is the third shelf down ( one from bottom, if you wish) of a mini-growtent placed on the Northwestern side of the Darlingtonia House. The inhabitants appear to be quite comfortable. For those interested, the display on the thermometer is the root (medium) temperature. Pinguicula...

Hey all, I noticed there's a few of you in here from around the Portland, OR area, so I'll be one more to the party! Scatterpants and I are good friends and have been feeding each others plant addictions the last few months, particularly in the CP/orchid area. While he tends to focus more on...

Early last spring ( 2015) I was ordering a couple of hard to find Darlingtonia ( If they are actually as described) and I decided to add Pinguicula vulgaris seed to the order as I hadn't grown the species for many years. Nothing at all happened in the pot last year except for the customary...

This happy little chappy is a self set plant in the live sphagnum of the Darlingtonia 'Othello' tray. Traditionally the first of this species to flower annually. For those not familiar with the species. the colour on the above is a little washed out as is the norm with photographs of blue...

Hi everyone! I have been doing some reading up on Darlingtonia recently because I have a flower that looks like it'll bloom in the next month or so. I'm really excited that it's doing so well. It's got a new pitcher coming up at the same time. It's sitting on my back porch and gets lots of...

As there are a few Darlingtonia in bud I thought I do a photo comparison of just a few of them to show the differences that when they are looked at singly may not be so apparent Above. On the left is "Venom" which has by far the largest buds. A very light pink tinge in parts. Centre is Vulcan...

I suppose it's about time so I'll start with some recent pictures. Quite a few actually. Plants waking up outdoors. Some native Oregon sphagnum I'm growing with the outdoor plants, covered with netting to discourage those pesky birds. My crazy S. "Daina's Delight" growing more than 100...

Hello everyone. I have been in the chat and lurking around a bit so thought I'd finally put together an intro thread. I'm just starting to get into carnivores aside from some success with Nepenthes before and a failure with Darlingtonia outdoors over winter some years back. I have a 4ft T5...

CP Water Germination Experiment Phase 1 tropical & subtropical species, mostly Drosera No stratification When I decided to restart my CP collection I had some seeds stored in my refrigerator for up to 17 years. Some were from the ICPS seedbank and some were from my old collection in the mid to...

This is a sample of the Darlingtonia seedlings I have on the go at the moment. These are all a year old and can be clearly seen in a peat mix, not so obvious is that they are over / in a sphagnum lining. I have trays in full sun, part shade, full shade, in with solar pumps and without. The same...

Hello all, I've been growing carnivorous plants for over 10 years. Most of that time I lived in Brooklyn where my growing area was limited to two small windowsills. I moved upstate a few years ago and my collection has grown exponentially. I am interested in all types of carnivorous plants but...

Hi yall, ive been growing cp's for a few years here and there, and since I'm somewhat settled in my current place, I thought I'd set up a more permanent grow shelf. I dragged a free-standing wooden shelf from the backyard to my bedroom's south-facing window, put a few trays of live sphagnum and...

As far as problems thriving with high heat (90-100 degrees Fahrenheit) please rank these plants from most tolerant to least tolerant and what temperatures are typically too high for them in your own personal experience. This is regardless of humidity. Drosera Regia Darlingtonia Californica...

After a long pause growing plants I recently started againin January 2016. Hopefully the spring will allow me to ramp up slowly and see what species I can grow outside without much trouble. Darlingtonia - D. californica Dionaea - D. muscipula typical form Seeds - D. muscipula (sprouted)...

This is a little intraspecies cross I made using 'Othello' as the pollen donor with my "Venom" ( pet name). Good to see a decent germination. Now all I need is a 50ft x 30ft greenhouse to grow the seedlings on in.
