The giveaway is for one plant each for two people, usual rules. I'll try to do this by noon on Thursday, as I would really like to ship on Friday. Shipping $7 Paypal. That leaves me 3, none of which I want to keep, plus an unrooted one with odd coloration, which is also fair game, but it...

I just took 3 pups off of my mom's Dyckia 'Alice' (my mom's name) added a few other things, mostly directly from her plants, mostly succulents. Looking for a trade for a CP with 'Alice' in the name, or one with Bohemian or Czech in the name (she's half Bohemian), or just an interesting...

I was hoping someone might have some ideas to help me resolve an issue with growing media. Several months ago, I began growing 4 Nepenthes in 100% perlite hydroponically. The plants are watered 3 times a day for 15 min. each (the minimum time interval on my timer) with nutrient solution. They...

I put my VFT - B52 directly outside a few weeks ago. They get direct east morning sun till high noon. A few days after They started to develop this dark, wilty tissue damage. My initial though was sunburn, but it was also fairly cold (mid 40's), and very windy on my third floor balcony. If it is...

While upgrading my petiolaris terrarium I was confronted with the question of what was I going to do for lighting? This is what I came up with. The components were mostly purchased from Home Depot - egg crate grating, E27 (screw-in type) sockets and standard lamp cord and a plug. In addition the...

I was over at my mom's, partly to get a picture of a Begonia, and I broke a piece off that plant by accident. So I decided to gather a few things and make it interesting. Here's what I left with: 1) Kalanchoe 'Pink Butterflies' 2) Calceolaria mexicana seedling (annual, reseeds) 3) Begonia...

Lately Ive been noticing that members are updating trade lists and posting about requests in regards to trading. I really enjoy the trading aspect of this forum and sometimes I overlook peoples trades, or theyre just obscure enough for me not to find/notice. Even sometimes members go inactive...

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...

Which plant below is C. 'Eden Black'? Currently, there is an auction on flea bay for a tiny Cephalotus 'Eden Black'. Let's play a little game and see if growers here can guess correctly. One of the three plants in the picture below is a genuine C. 'Eden Black', traceable to the originator...

Hi guys. I have an Amorphophallus Konjac bulb I’ve been growing for maybe the past 3 years and just noticed it is starting to bloom for the first time! But it seems really, really early….I normally have it starting to sprout just a tiny leaf tip around March or April and by the time the weather...

So I spent a little over half of June and all of July of this year in Borneo and Australia. I flew quite literally, around the world and it was absolutely incredible. I flew from RDU to JFK where I spent eight hours sitting around on the airport floor. Then I flew directly to Frankfurt, Germany...

After speaking with several members here among other growers, I have realized that there are more misconceptions about successfully growing these plants than I had thought. I wrote the care sheet below last year for the NECPS members to use as a guide for their cultivation and I hope that it can...

Carnivorous means that something is a "meat eater". It doesn't mean that something kills the animal, or else pure scavengers would not be considered carnivorous. A vulture is a carnivore simply because it eats meat, not because it may on some occasions kill things. Does that make everything a...

Carnivorous plants began to interest me when I played Sim Earth. In the game, you oversaw the planet's evolution and the evolution of animal varieties from primitive forms into sentient, intelligent ones. Besides Mollusks, Mammals, and other kinds, there was a very unusual one - carniferns...

Recently I received a drosera regia root cutting and potted it up in a mixture of 1:1 perlite dead LFS. The plant has not done well in the 9 days that I have had it since shipping. Its temps are 82 high and about 70 low. Humidity is probably 75 % minimum (The hygrometer I had broke.) I have had...

Hello all, The New England Carnivorous Plant Society has begun planning the annual fall show, Oct. 4-5 in Providence Rhode Island. We are in need of speakers and presenters for any and all carnivorous plant related topics from beginner to expert level material. If you've got an idea that you'd...

I really gotta stop coming up with weird titles lol. Anyway I just performed a mass leaf pulling on all of my pings this Friday (06/27/14) and thought I would start a development thread incase anyone was interested. I am too lazy to retype all the pings so I am just copying the description...
