Hey everyone - Calling all sundew experts!
I have four nice pygmy sundews, and I'm trying to get them to produce some gemmae so I can sustain their colonies. To achieve this, I've gradually lowered the photoperiod down from 16 hours to 9. I plan to leave it there until mid-February and then...

I am taking gemmae, received or home grown, and starting them over again in 6" pots (tall and wide). or those species or cultivars with a small amount of gemmae I have place them in quadrants. For those with a whole mess, they get the whole pot. I was going to spell out a couple names wth them...
While looking around my plants to see what is still alive, I looked really closely for gemmae but instead of gemmae... I found pests. D:
they are near the center of the plants... are they aphids or something? any suggestions on what to do?
Thanks.

So here's a little riddle: which species name can be found across Nepenthes, Drosera and Pinguicula? - it also happens to be three species that I have in my collection. Still don't get it? Well... Say for example, 'gigantea'. There's Drosera gigantea and Pinguicula gigantea, but to the best of...
Sorry the first set here is super extra blurry/bad lighting, but I'm just recovering from giving blood a few days ago and still a little light-headed...

Looks like I will have D. "Lake Badgerup" gemmae coming out of my ears this year. So if anyone wants them PM me. Trades welcomed. Ideally for the SASE I would be sending them to you in a small padded envelope and postage about $1.22. not sure how you would send me a small padded envelope...
PM me for my address so you know where to send your sase - open to U.S. residents only, and include what you're sase'ing for and your forums name in your envelope otherwise I won't send (it's too much to keep track of just myself). Copy this list, put your name under what you want, and paste in...
SO - I have a nice set of four pygmy Drosera that I got in the mail about two weeks ago. I'm reducing the photoperiod in my grow rack down to about 9 hours a day to coax these things into producing their gemmae around November. Here's my question:
If I leave the gemmae alone and don't touch...
CLOSED-- Thanks Frilleon!
I accidentally bought 3,000 Blatta lateralis; AKA red runners, Turks, Turkistans, little-fast-sneezy things; and both Teddy, my bearded dragon, and I are tired of them.
They can't climb, but can sure run, and the males can kinda hover and flutter-glide. They are good...
So many friends have said if I wanted to grow again to give a holler when I was ready that I thought I would put this here. I wish I could put it in the trade forum, but I really have nothing to offer yet except promises to make it up when I can.
I have some new friends in South Africa and...
One of my D.scorpioides is producing gemmae. If some one wants, PM me for my address. You only need to send me an empty envelop with a stamp and your address (so, please write your own address clear; if you don't receive it, it's your responsibility).
Each SASE includes 10+ gemmaes. Gemmae is...
