flower

i recently checked my growspace and discovered a flower popping up from my minor. If anyone has pollen (any) i would love to work out some kind of trade.

I was given four Dendrobium orchids that with just labels as a gift/challenge to research and take care of them. From left to right we have a Fancy Angel Lycee, Kingianum, Crepiteferum/Glomeratum, and a Gold Star. As you can see, they're rather young and won't flower for a few years, but I...

This poor plant seems to be declining in my care. I need your help determining what's stressing it. I think I may have had it too close to my grow light. It has red splotches on the lower stems that aren't on my other plant that sits about 5" lower (and so farther from the light source). The...

Hi, I was just wondering, can you do a cutting from the flower stalk from a nepenthes? I have a couple that are starting to flower, and before i cut them off and compost them, it occurred to me that you might be able to do cuttings with them. Has anyone tried and had any success? Thanks!!

Spring is here, I'm getting lots of new growth and the sarras are sending up flowers so I'm trying to pollinate them. In the process of doing so the cotton bud I was using to pick up the pollen managed to get some kind of clear jelly on it. Apart from being clear it was very thick, but not...

One of my Lithops decided it wants to flower. There's one now and another on the other way:

Well I grow two different types of passion flower. Passiflora incarnata and p. Caerulea. The p. Caerulea does ever flower, but produces beautiful foliage so I don't mind. My p. Incarnata is at the end of its first year of growth and had a flower, now is producing a fruit with , I hope, viable...

Hello all, Been meaning to post a couple things in here for a while, finally getting around to the first... Up for grabs is approximately half of the clump in the picture: D. 'Marston Dragon' FS by Hawken Carlton, on Flickr I don't know exactly how many plants are here, but there are at least 8...

So these white filiaments appeared on my U. dichotoma's flower stalk last week (and yes I'm just now getting around to posting about it). There are actually two patches of said filaments. Both completely encircle the segment of stalk occupied. The larger mass -- shown here as seen through a...

Or more to the point -- the magnifying glass. Love the macro shots that Mach and others post, but, alas!, I lack the equipment and the means of obtaining such. :-( So here are some of my various and asundry attempts shooting through a handheld magnifying glass... one of my best attempts, I...

My newest bog, installed in the zone stretching spot at the inside corner of the angle formed by the intersection of my slate patio and asphalt driveway. It's reserved for low growing plants such as VFTs, Pings, and orchids. There's a statue of William Penn on top of city hall in Philadelphia...

Hi Has anyone got some N. robcantleyi pollen available as mine is starting to flower as of mid September 2015. Standard conditions of 50:50 seed sharing after successful pollination. The plant was sourced from Hampshire Carnivorous Plants and is the Queen of Heart x King of Spades cross. My...

I have received an orchid division labeled as a "hardy Chinese ground orchid" (Bletilla), which I can tell from the foliage it's not. Unfortunately, I do not have any pictures of the blooms. It was given to me as a gift from a friend who grows it on an east-facing windowsill, with the directions...

All my photos were on a website which no longer exists. Go to page 3 to see actual photos and not just lists of plants!

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. P. esseriana D. sp...

Eeeek there be holes and missing bits on the tomato plants. Well to be honest the plants can spare the extra foliage at this time of year. Here are the culprits. Lacanobia oleracea, the Bright-line Brown-eye moth caterpillar. Also known to gardeners as the Tomato Moth, I can't work out why...

I've heard rumors about this happening, but I wonder if any of you have seen this occur in your own plants: gender switching. I have a BE clone of N. vogelii that flowered 14 months ago, and provided me with loads of pollen, with which I successfully made several crosses. A few days ago I was...
