    Looking for Cephalotus Pullings!

    Hi, I am looking for leaf pullings (fresh or rooted) of cephalotus varieties other than typical. I would really like a hummer's giant.... I have lots of live, green sphagnum moss I can trade along with 1 small Leo Song's Jaws flytrap and 1 nickel-sized bristletooth flytrap. Thanks! Quinton

    My Biolapse Thread.

    Hello Folks! My name is Chris, and I am a timelapse photographer. Rather than going for the iconic tortured tree in front of a starfield my interests have turned towards plants and studio work. I wanted to start this thread to document my progress, and hopefully get some tips on how to get...

    flytrap pollen?

    how long can flytrap pollen be stored and do you keep it in the fridge or freezer? do you remove the anthers completely or do you rub the pollen off onto something then bag that, for example a toothpick or cuetip covered in pollen then put into a plastic bag

    Hello from New York City!

    Hello! I've always been an orchid aficionado, and started growing them in earnest up here in NYC about 8 months ago. The Orchid Board led me here, and I've been buying CPs over the past month or so. Of course I had my odd Venus Flytrap sold in a little plastic box when I was a kid, but like...

    Is my sprouting setup suitable?

    I planted my first carnivorous plant (flytrap) seeds today and thought I would check with the forum to see if there are any changes I should make to my setup before too much time passes. I am using an old seed sprouting tray with some 3"-ish starter pots inside, filled with 50/50 peat moss and...

    NEED: Venus Flytrap feeding photo

    Hi all. I am finding it ridiculously difficult to find a good photo of a VFT forming the sealed stomach chamber on prey. I would like to include one in my powerpoint for my CP class when I talk about the stages of a VFT's trapping/digestion. I was wondering if someone could feed their flytraps...

    Fogger

    Hey guys! I was wondering if any of you use a fogger to keep the humidity levels up in your tank. I am thinking about purchasing a small fogger and leaving on the low setting so my humidity will be constant all day. Lowest my humidity gets without a fogger is around 70% before I spray the tank...

    Flytrap thefts could become felony under N.C. bill

    I don't get on much any more because grad school severely hampers my down time, but I thought it would be worth getting on to post this. Sure, the article is probably more suited to the Dionaea or Conservation Station sections, but I thought it'd be appropriate for the whole community...

    Tracking Down Old Cultivars

    I thought it would be fun to try to find some of the oldest carnivorous plant cultivars out there. The ICPS has a cultivar list with dates, so I thought I'd find some of the older ones and post them here. It would be neat to see if any of them are still around and if they aren't try to find the...

It's a really cool plant, hardy for me (zone 7b) and listed as potentially hardy up to Boston. Also makes a good annual, grows fast, drought-tolerant, and...
