    Teaching a class on CPs!!!!!

    Hey guys! I am ridiculously excited because I just pitched an idea for me to teach a class on CPs at the State Botanical Garden of Georgia. I know a few staff over there, and since I already exhibit CPs at one of their events the idea went over really well. It will probably be in the spring and...

    Looking for trades to expand a teaching CP collection

    Hi everyone! I would love to begin doing some plant trades in order to benefit my workplace and obtain a more complete and interesting collection of CPs. Because my teaching greenhouses aren't specifically specialized in CPs, there are significant holes in our collection and many genera are...

    What if . . .

    Hey everyone, this question has bothered me all week, would it be possible to cross-pollinate a Heliamphora with a Darlingtonia and get viable seeds or would it be impossible? I'm just curious.

Anyways I want to get another one, but I don't know where I should buy it. I saw some at the store owned by a...

    Do Darlingtonia need cool roots?

    I have been monitoring the root temperatures on my Darlingtoia colonies this summer. As part of this I seperated the stolon of a young plant from the Mother colony ( it was in the wrong place) and planted it up in a half tray. Here is the plant on June 16th. As it is a half tray it has...

    Reverse Osmosis Advice

    Okay fellow TFers, I have a quandary: what do I need to know before buying a reverse osmosis unit? I am tired of collecting water off my air conditioning coils, but I don't quite know what I am in for. Some background insight first, I guess. I have about twenty to twenty-five containers of...

    My Darlingtonia Experience (Thus Far)

    I have been growing Darlingtonia for several months now, and they seem to be doing well. I have a thread on a different forum updating my experiences. Here is a link to that thread for those interested. To summarize, our summers here are hot, and I figured Darlingtonia would not thrive. To...

    Sad sight to come home to yesterday morning

    Sometime in the night raccoons discovered the bog and destroyed some of my best sarrs. It was obvious they were after the bugs inside the pitchers. I cannot afford to put an electric fence around the bog at this time, so I suspect they will destroy the rest of the plants in there in the coming...

As soon as my two main adult plants start to produce offshoot bulbs, im going to create a combo bog bowl with them and...
