Hopefully it isn't too late to post these guys. I just got an ID recently. Furcraeas are close relatives of Agaves. These plants are apparently hardy to about 25 F, although I don't know anything about this particular clone. Tropicos lists this species as from 2000-3000 m. So I'm betting...

Hello, Up for bid are two small P. vulgaris plants from my outdoor bog garden. They are just now emerging from dormancy and are putting out their first leaves of the season. These are truly temperate plants and I don't have any idea how they will do outside of this region's climate, but they...

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...

Some of the folks I work with have finally published their research on the Sarracenia family tree. I have been holding off on sharing details on this research forever and can't contain my excitement any longer! I know almost all of the authors personally (folks from UGA and the Atlanta...

Agapetes serpens and 'Ludgvan Cross' Beautiful "Blueberries". Trade/Giveaway. Agapetes is a genus of Old World (Asian) blueberries which I believe grow in some of the same areas as highland Nepenthes. I think the center of their range may be slightly North, often into the Himilayan foothills...

A friend recently alerted me to the fact that a small Pseudomiltemia filisepala is being auctioned, and the current bid (with several days to go) is surprisingly high. My response is to give one away. If someone is looking for this plant, but does not win this giveaway, I might be willing to...

Hey folks! I just got some really gorgeous Tillandsia butzii and caput-medusae with an armored scale thrown in at no extra charge! I'm no entomologist, but from a quick look on the internet and in Garden Insects of North America they seem to be Diapsis echinocactus, or Cactus scale. I have...

Hello everyone! My name is Alvin Liu, and I'm a high school student from New Jersey. I've been fascinated with carnivorous plants since I met my first VFT (that I killed unfortunately) on a dim shelf in the local garden center. My collection is still pretty small, but it's slowly growing. In...
