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...

My Passiflora 'Preciosa' desperately needs to be cut back--I plan to do it Sunday. If anyone can get any use out of some of the cuttings, I can send about 10 nodes (or possibly more, depending on interest). 2 nodes is enough to root a new plant, and they root in water. There's a good chance...

After splitting my rubras a couple months ago, I ended up with twelve plants! I've given some to friends but still have 6 extra I'm willing to give up. Last summer, they were making pitchers 5-7 inches tall. I also have 2 purpurea venosa's I'd like to trade. One purpurea is a baby with pitches...

I bought a Jackfruit late last year, and started a number of the seeds. I've decided I don't have the room to deal with the sprouted seeds, and I'd like to send them to someone for postage. I'm not sure how much postage will be--hopefully for 1 or 2 pounds ($7.15 or $11.55, or perhaps less...

I am wondering what the lowest "kill temperature" is for D. filiformis "Florida All Red." If I could keep these plants outside, I would be able to free up a significant amount of greenhouse space at home. I know they don't *need* a dormancy, but if the temps are low enough would they be forced...

Jpappy's porch growing photo thread Got a bunch of new plants in today and ready to start my outdoor collection. All US natives and hybrids at the moment. Apologies if Sarracenia names are a bit incorrect, my taxonomic knowledge of the genus is a bit rough so this is how they were labeled from...

Hello everybody, I have a D. schizandra that I have been growing for a few months in a sealed glass container, however, living in Florida the temps will soon get to extreme for it and I don't want it to die. So, I'm offering it up for trade. I need to have this plant shipped before about the...

I failed to do my due diligence and research what to do before my plants arrived, but today I only received a small batch (a D. filiformis, D. intermedia and a P. primuliflora). The former two are definitely dormant, but the primuliflora is flowering. Next week I'll be receiving a big order of...

In about 1968, when I was living in Westminster, California. I was an avid organic gardener, In the back yard, I had an organic vegetable garden, not very large (about 10' x 40'), but it contained a large variety of plants. I had two bee hives atop a grape arbor. I also kept a rooster in one...

So the florist at my work found this frog in a plant order she got from Florida I was hoping some one would be able to help me id this guy

As a part of an assignment for school, I'm supposed to create a website with guides for growing all sorts of different CPs in south Florida, I wanted to hear from people who grow CPs here how they do it, watering, media, if certain species require different growing conditions than others, i.e...

I've decided to consolidate all my photos of wild carnivorous plants and other associated flora into 1 thread. So far, I've visited bogs from Maine to Florida, I'm hoping to add a West Coast trip this summer. This 1st bog, an Atlantic White Cedar Bog is almost within Boston city limits. It...

Hello everyone, A week or so ago I stuck a few plants in my fridge so that I wouldn't have to worry about them during their dormancy. Well, this fridge is in my garage, and apparently the garage was cold enough to freeze everything in the fridge, including the plants :headwall: The roots were...

Hello all I live in NE Florida where I have a bunch of native CPs already. I've collected some that are growing on my land as well as recently purchased a few Sarrs to round out my collection of native Florida species. I'm wanting to pot them up so I can have them in my back yard to enjoy...

Ok, so i'm very new to carnivorous plants, I got a VFT 2 years ago and just this year started adding more to my collection. And just very recently started looking into acquiring more and research. At the moment I have a VFT, a D. capensis x spatulata( i think), a purple, and white top pitcher...

Howdy. I went on a nature hike today just outside of Tampa, Florida and spotted some Sarracenia minor. Here are some photos from the hike: The habitat: Wading in mud to get around the preserve: Sarracenias!

I have 4 packs drosera Filiformis "Florida red" seed to share with this generous forum community. 4 winners will be picked by random number generator next Sunday (10/12/2014), shipping is on me (USA only). As usual, just put your name below: 1. 2. 3. 4. . . .

Hello all, I am considering attempting to naturalize a population of VFTs in my front yard here in the swamp in NE Florida. I already have pings and sundews growing in that part of the yard and I have several sarrs growing elsewhere as well. There are also bladderworts in the swamp at the...
