Just got back from a weeklong trip and had a family friend water my collection of bonsai, regular houseplants, and sarracenia, drosera, and VFTs. I told him to use the water in the barrel for the CPs and the tap for everything else but (stupidly) didn’t specify that regular water could kill the...
Hello everyone. An interesting event (as seen in the attached pictures) is taking place with my Drosera. One of the seed pod shoots has developed a secondary branch (marked in blue). At the top of this secondary branch is a healthy little new plant!
Is this unusual? Can anyone please offer...
I am planning a group purchase for Drosera Pygmy Gemmae, from across the pond; in the EU. Tuesday deadline. Approximately 10 packets of each remain.
Mind your weather. First paid first served. PP FF so that excess can be easily returned to buyer. PM for details.
Hi all! I bought some petiolaris Drosera seeds because, well, if I'm going to have a heated tank set up I may as well fill it! So today I needed to get the new pots into the tank and one of the exsisting pots, didn't want to move over. I did break a couple- who knows how long they were but I...
Hi all,
A little over a year ago Fernando and I visited the Democratic Republic of the Congo and rediscovered Drosera katangensis, a species that had never been previously photographed, and was known only from old herbarium specimens. Under permits from the DRC and with cooperation of the...
Hi there!
Long-time lurker, first-time poster here looking for a little help with my D. Multifida Extrema that has suddenly developed a hard white substance on the base of a new arm. I also just noticed rust-colored algae(?) developing on the tips on the live moss and along the edges of the...
Hello - I received these two D. magnifica several years ago when they were first released by BCP. They grew well for a while, but over the past year or two the leaves stopped completely unfurling and turn black. Lately they've stopped producing dew.
Soil is a mix of peat/perlite/sand top...
Hello! Its been quite a while since I have been here browsing and getting back into the trade of keeping some sundews, pitchers, pings, pines and more. I lost my entire collection due to neglect while pressing through some time demanding and hard times having a New baby and relationship issues...
Hi Guys,
I’m new here and new to growing carnivorous plants so I would like to get some help from you please. I just bought my first Drosera Capensis, or that’s what I think it is…Could you please confirm?
The plant doesn’t look too good in my opinion, the leaves are beginning to get brown and...
Hi,
I am looking for an easy to grow, more or less, Genlisea. I prefer the perennial kind. I really don't have anything worth trading so I'm buying. The Genlisea has priority but if you have an easy to grow Drosera, too, that can handle low humidity then let me know. I might be interested in...
I bought some Pygmy Drosera gemmae earlier this year, but was unable to get them to grow. I'd like to give it another go, but realize it is off-season right now for gemmae. Nonetheless, I thought I'd reach out and see if anyone has any gemmae left they are willing to sell.
Please let me know...
Hi everyone! I'm new to the forum! I recently got myself a drosera regia after wanting one for a long time now, along with a drosera aff. lanata "Flying Fox Creek". It's been about a week and a half since I got them and I noticed that, especially with the regia, the leaves are starting to...

Okay so my Nepenthes sanguinea decided to put out some more basal shoots(5 basal shoots produced in 2 months :p wow) and I was wondering if anyone would trade some utrics for some basals. I may trade for drosera or sarracenia but it depends on what species. I will definitely trade for a S...
Man-Made Drosera tokaiensis - white flower
This is one of Ivan Snyder's (aka Dr. Frankensnyder) creations. According to a grower in Japan who studies the native D. tokaiensis white flowers are (or haven't been) found in nature. This is a sterile hybrid, propagate by leaf or root cuttings...
Hey everyone I'm new to the forum and was wondering if anyone has succeeded in raising a D. magnifica to maturity. I have just got mine and I am trying to make it as comfortable as possible I have it at 70-78 F in day and 55-60 F at night. I keep the soil mix well draining and aerated. I always...
