flytraps

Okay fellow TFers, I have a quandary: what do I need to know before buying a reverse osmosis unit? I am tired of collecting water off my air conditioning coils, but I don't quite know what I am in for. Some background insight first, I guess. I have about twenty to twenty-five containers of...

I know vft's can not be left out in freezing weather. My problem is I have no place to put them in the winter where they would get the temp and light needed to hibernate. My basement is heated at about 65 degrees even on the window sill. I did the refrigerator method last year and they survived...

I'm looking into getting Mexican pings to be kept on windowsill. I have a nice little south western window that gets 3-4 hours of direct sunlight in the summer and more in the winter. I know P. 'piroutte' and P. moranensis will be good species to keep in that way. I also have my eye on P...

I just joined today. Have been growing carnivorous plants since I was little but seriously now for 4 years. I'm currently working on a TC project with Nepenthes, Dionaea, Drosera, and Cephalotus as part of some summer research that I'm doing at school. Finding as much information as is out there...

bisnicks' Mini-bog container build So recently I decided I wanted to build my own mini-bog container garden. After scouring through forums, I finally decided on how I would be building it. My mini-bog isn't original at all, but a fusion between two of my favorite mini-bogs I have seen on this...

Here is a list of plants available. I am interested in Sarracenia and rare Flytraps but who knows. Just let me know what you have and we will work something out. Here's the list: Wilkerson's White Knight x Purp Venosa Columbus Co., NC - sm/med. x 2, med. Oreophila Heavy Veined x Catesbaei...

Yo! I've been lurking this site for a while and now seems to be the best time to join. I've been growing sarracenia outdoors for about four years now. It all started with a S. flava and a Dionaea 'Akai Ryu'. Unfortunately my newbie mistakes during dormancy killed my first group of plants. The...

Alright, so the project I'm looking to tackle is that of three small tanks to turn into plant-only terrariums of different kinds. They're all slightly different sizes, but they're all around the 2 gallon mark and all still more or less watertight. I'd quite like to do one of each type to start...

Hello all! I am looking for a few different things, I have quite a few hybrid sarracenia seedlings that are about 1 year old (I have pics upon request), please email me at Dplord2@gmail.com with any offers. I am looking for these plants any size will do D. filiformis florida giant D. adelae...

So I'm not sure if anyone here would be interested in these Algae and coral I have from my marine tank but I figured it was worth seeing if any of my extras would be of interest to trade for someone else's extras. I could go for something new :) I have cheatomorpha and caulerpa algae if anyone...

Yes, indeed, the one with the uncreative name has returned, with yet more questions. (I have sooooo many questions. :p) Okay, I'm planning on ordering a Heliamphora minor. I do know that these plants are more difficult that plants like Venus flytraps or Drosera capensis. I have a setup waiting...

Greetings all, As has been posted to the CP-Listserv, recently (May 30th, 2013) about 1000 Dionaea were stolen from Wilmington, NC's Stanley Rehder Carnivorous Plant Garden. Here is a link to the article: http://www.starnewsonline.com/article/20130530/ARTICLES/130539991?p=1&tc=pg A list...

Hello all! Unlike most people around the US, with warm, humid conditions from February onward, here in CO the wild fluctuations and dry air have finally allowed some of my plants to start looking presentable. here's some I thought looked alright: A recent addition, S. flava rugelii x oreophila...

My typical and "Dentate Traps" Venus flytraps both have generated at least one flower stalk with me; the former I cut off. My typical plant began making a SECOND, which I also cut off (which you'd know if you've looked at my Grow List and Eat Counts recently). Both times, only a couple weeks...

Hey everyone! I live in South London, UK and own a Nepenthes Alata. I've always loved carniverous plants but had very little success with them to date over the years. I always bought Venus Flytraps and they always died within months :( However my nepenthes from last summer is doing well...
