There is a seller on fleabay who is selling seeds of various CPs and they are using photos from people in the CP community. I have found two of my photos used (which have now been removed) and I seem to recognize several other pics of Drosera and Nepenthes. You may want to take a look and see if...
One lucky person shall be the proud owner of my extra plants, plants I either never intended to have or have far too many of. It comes complete with:
Two different vigorous sarracenia, I don't really know what they are, as they are from seed and the seeds were mislabeled as drosera seeds...
Update, all cephs have been traded! Thanks for all the interest and fantastic trade offers :D
Mods can close this up.

Greetings all!
I have a few extra Cephs for trade to thin the herd a bit. My outdoor CPs took a major hit after this brutal winter so I'm...
Didn't know exactly where to post this or how much attention it will get on this forum but here it goes regardless. My girlfriend just moved into the first floor of her grandmothers house. Eventually I may move in with her but regardless of whether that happens or not there is an old dilapidated...
This auction is for a pot of seed-grown N. bongso (there are at least three individuals in this pot). These are about 32 months old now. I have seen sufficient evidence to state that I believe this lot of seedlings (all from one seed pod) is true-to-species, however, I cannot guarantee that...
This auction is for a pair of seed-grown N. jamban. IIRC these are about 18 months old now. I have seen sufficient evidence to state that I believe this lot of seedlings (all from one seed pod) is true-to-species, however, I cannot guarantee that these will be pure, unadulterated (non-hybrid)...

One question that comes up now and then by new members is how to embed photos into their posts. It is certainly more stunning visually to include photos in a message rather then just a link to the images. Here is a short illustrated guide.
First you need an account on an image hosting site...
I was wondering if it is okay to put CPs in a room with a shower. I have a bathroom with a north-facing window that gets a fair amount of sun in the afternoon because of the elevation that I would like to move my Drosera regia too, but it is next to a shower. The water from the shower wouldn't...
Hi all. I am finding it ridiculously difficult to find a good photo of a VFT forming the sealed stomach chamber on prey. I would like to include one in my powerpoint for my CP class when I talk about the stages of a VFT's trapping/digestion.
I was wondering if someone could feed their flytraps...
Hi all,
My questions aren't going to be directly related to growing CPs (though I'll likely attempt some Helis so maybe they do), but CP growers seems to have a level of ingenuity that isn't necessarily around in other plant hobbies.
I've been growing orchids for 15ish years now and have...
Hi guys,
Lets address it point by point:
1) I have been off the grid for a long while. Haven't been around any forums for over 6-8 months. Same old story...plants going downhill and loosing interest. But recently, I got a call from my local hamilton RBG to give a 1h+ talk on carnivorous plants...
Hello! Fairly new to the forums, asking all sorts of questions all over the place for my new 3 plants, but I really want to get everything right and not have a graveyard on my hands! I just finished setting up a new terrarium, got brand new lights, and figured out how to keep the darn thing at...

So while I was at Lowes a few months back, I noticed some Deathcubes on sale. 50% off. And I'm a sucker for hard luck cases. :) These were the "have some peat, have some plants in ziplock bags that are 'dormant', good luck" type that starting appearing in stores...
So I have a small collection of plants, some doing well, others not so well. Lately I've gotten the bug to upgrade my growing conditions and I'm thinking about upgrading my old wireframe Lowes rack into a terrarium, or adding a terrarium to my collection as I can.
My plan is to source things...
Hello all!
I have a feeling that I am just doing one thing wrong that my sundew does not like, however I am not sure what it is. To give you some background, about 7 years ago I used to own multiple sundews, Drosera Capensis Albinos and Pygmys, as well as a couple of different Nepenthes and...
I spent a wonderful afternoon exploring a couple of the local bogs here in Aberdeenshire, Scotland, with a fellow UK CP grower. Here's a few pictures I took:
We saw mostly D. rotundifolia:
This was one of the few D. anglica we seen. They had a preference to grow directly on the peat...
