Hello all,
I'm seriously considering moving over to the panhandle of Florida in the next couple of years, and there's a little town called Sopchoppy right in the Apalachicola National Forest. It has a population under 1000 and is only about a half hour from Tallahassee, but as mentioned, is...
Hello again. I decided I need some incentive to packetize all the seed I've collected from these plants lately, and what better incentive than to host a giveaway, lol.
Up for grabs are two packets of D. filiformis (Florida Red) seed:
Anyone can enter, but I'm going to do this a little...
I apologize in advance if I posted this in the wrong sub-forum.
I've mainly drosera, a few byblis and a few pinguiculas. I might be adding nepenthes, flytrap and sarracenia into my collection soon.
I've always wanted to get artifical lightings because it's always so cloudy here. Went onto...

Decided to start a new pic thread since it's been awhile since I updated pics here (although regulars in chat will have probably seen most of them at one point or another).
Guess we'll start with the indoor stuff:
Half of the large terrarium, full of Sarr seedlings from seed sown last year...
As the title says, I'm looking for D. linearis. Doesn't have to even be a mature plant. Seeds, seedlings, strikes, or even fresh cuttings are welcome; I can root them myself. Just looking to own a specimen or two of the species.
I have a few things to trade, but not much.

Short update on my intermedia and highland nepenthes. I live in Florida and this is the hottest time of the year, therefore, not many pitchers form. Hope you enjoy! HERE IS THE LINK TO THE VIDEO OF THE GREENHOUSE:

Hi all,
I have a couple companion plants in my temperate bog that went to seed and could use a thinning. Thought I'd offer some up to members here for postage if there is interest. The two most interesting are Xyris (Yellow-eyed grass) species and then a couple Eleocharis.
I'm not sure of...
Due to overpopulation I am trading some duplicates to make room for new plants.

.Nepenthes Miranda (rooted cutting)
.Drosera binata marstons dragon
.Drosera filiformis tracyii
.Drosera spathulata
.Drosera nitidula x pulchella
.Vft "spider"
.Green sphagnum moss...
So I joined this forum over a year ago and never really participated much. However, I've learned alot from the great community here and am hoping to share the little knowledge I have and gain some more! I'm currently in college (Penn State) and spending the summer at my parents farm before...
Found this hiking a trail, i live in the Florida panhandle and after some googling, i cant figure out what this is! It was growing out of the ground on a stem.

Hey everyone! Im a relatively new CP grower, i got my first plant 2 years ago and have been slowly adding to the collection via this amazing website and some other sources. But im having an issue with my pitcher plants, specifically my leucophylla. I dont remember seeing this last year(when I...
In a never-ending quest to make more room in my GH for my CP collection, I'm starting to pare down extras and less desirable (to me, at least) non-CP:
1. Gasteria fuscopunctata - a large plant with lots of babies. Originally from the University of South Florida Botanical Garden in Tampa...
I purchased this plant almost exactly a month ago and have yet to successfully acclimate my plant to its new environment. The plant arrived in great condition, but has slowly declined since. At first it was kept indoors in a south facing window and watered from the top (6-8 hours of direct...
Started just recently helping take care of animals at the university I'm studying at. I'm not at the stage where I can help handle the venomous ones, but I'm still in the room, so got some pics of some interesting animals:

So, about a year ago I purchased a N. anamensis plant from a Bruce Bednar in Central Florida, can't really say more because of forum rules. I'm trying to figure out exactly what this plant is since N. anamensis is not a valid scientific name anymore, a lot of people have said it's now grouped...
Hey guys, i'm relatively new to the site, and to growing CPs. I have a pretty small collection established and some others in the works, but my question is about plants flowering. More specifically the plants ive had for the past 1-3 years since i've started. I have white tops pitcher plants...
Here are some pics of the reptiles, birds, non-cp's and others I found on this years trip. Check out the carnivores here: http://www.terraforums.com/forums/showthread.php/138194-Carnivorous-Plants-in-the-Wild-My-In-Situ-Explorations/page3?p=1172739#post1172739

Hi all, I was active on these forums a long time ago but I just recently rejoined. I had a few questions for you about pot sizes for certain plants. I know that VFTs need a pot depth of 6in+ because their roots grow straight down but I also want to find out the depths/dimensions of pots needed...
