So, I feel a little sheepish declaring a VFT seed giveaway of only 3 packets, when there are more veteran growers here giving away rare Nep hybrids, royal truncatas and Drosophyllum seeds... but in the meantime, I've got three packets of ~20-30 seeds each of good ol' D. muscipula seeds to give...
I just got my first Heliamphora (H. minor) and N. maxima 'tentana', and have good progress on some of my other plants as well, so thought I would make a picture thread.
Enjoy :)
1 H. minor (just arrived yesterday, 10/17/11)

On Saturday, I attended the yearly "Halloween" BACPS meet, which was tons of fun. Then, out of the blue, Doris pointed to the raffle table and said "They're giving away some Drosophyllum seeds over there!". I picked up a pack, and it had at least fifteen seeds, which is more than I really need...
Hello from Djoni, Portland, Oregon area. I have never joined a forum before, so all new to me. I am hopelessly addicted to CPs, perhaps getting a little out of hand. My husband says I am turning into a carnivorous plant hoarder.
About 7 years ago while wandering around a Saturday Market, I...
Well it's been getting cool outside so it's now indoors but I'm kinda worried about feeding it. I wanted to know if I could use an artificial fertilizer to supply it's nutritional needs since my parents aren't very keen on me having live bugs in the house, any advice would be helpful!!
Here's my growlist, as far as I can remember. The dates are purchase/order arrival dates (if I can remember)
Everything with an asterisk before it (*) is up for possible trade, or may be in the relatively near future.
Cephalotus:
young mature plant with two growth points. Early spring 2011...
I have a extra hydrofarm 4 bulb t5 ho sitting the box. Tonight I will be putting 25 seeds into peat pots for germination...while i do have a windowsill that receives 8 hours of sun I would prefer if I can start them with 18 hour cycles instead to speed them along. My question is, has anyone been...
Been looking around on threads for members different recipes for success for their drosophyllum. Can't seem to find one that delves too deep. Hopefully we can start something here.
My current media mix has been mixed up and is awaiting for it's recently ordered dewy pine to call home to the...
Looking for some dewy pine seeds to plant up for my personal amusement :) Willing to trade off some plants or this $25 visa giftcard that sits on my desk collecting dust.
Thanks for looking :rookwoot:

I picked up a baby Droso a couple weeks ago from the local CP nursery... SO STOKED to finally have one of these! :laaa: It just kind of sucks that it had to be at the END of the season where I could safely keep it outside. :headwall:
For substrate I used pumice, rinsed black lava rock, rinsed...
I have been growing my dewy pine on my roof in brooklyn, it has been getting full sun. The issue is sort of the opposite of what happens to most people, I have been having trouble keeping the soil wet enough, I will water the plant in the morning and by the afternoon the soil is bone dry. I am a...
OK, so here's the deal. Sometime within the past week a large deer died next to my driveway, and I'm just letting nature clean it up (don't worry, it's a long driveway so it's not right near the house). As you can guess, in addition to the dozens of vultures hanging out, there is also thousands...

I had a budget this time around so was good and didn't splurge TOO bad lol. I was hoping to find certain things that they ended up not having, so I just picked out what I liked from what was there.
"Appalachian Spring", I cant remember what this was a cross of. Rubra x alata maybe? Or Rubra x...
I've been reading a while that in cultivation, many dewy pines die after flowering. Why is this? Is monocarpy common in this species in the wild as well? The two main reasons I've heard of is that the plant simply exhausts itself while flowering and setting seed, or that watering it after it has...
I can send SASE. I have some Drosophyllum seed for trade. Possibly some different Drosera seed. &/or lots of different Pings or Ping pullings.
PM me.
cheers
