when i throw up (no i'm not bulimic) i feel horrible, lightheaded, etc. i feel like i've had blood drawn. is this low blood sugar? why would puking make my sugar low?
i've been tested for diabetes since it runs in my family, so i'm clean. i'm tested like once a year with my annual bloodwork.
Hey folks, I have a problem with one of my sundews, a D. spatulata I think. It was in horrible condition when I got it a month or so ago, but I replanted it and it seemed to recover. The only problem is that this plant has never produced dew. Its been growing fairly vigorously and is even...
I was faced with a temptation I could not resist... I've been gluten free for about 4 weeks now. But I love ethiopian cuisine and could not resist yesterday, I ordered lentils and scarfed it down with the injera. When I was finished I asked for an extra side of injera and woofed it down by...

the title should say it all- we got one at a plant sale yesterday and I was intrigued by the notion that such a funky-looking plant MAY live in my bog garden (the cranberries bor the heck outta me and the occasional crabgrass isn't much for "flora" either)
Anyways, after checking out the 'net...
Hi all,

Firstly,
copelandii Apo from BE.
yes its an intermediate plant trying to grow in extreme lowland here in Singapore,
but it was doing fine for 2+ months, bringing...
I got a D. Adelae last Thursday in the mail and let me tell you it looked horrible. I have some questions about this plant. I've been reading around and trying to find some cool other plants then the various types of Venus Flytraps and this was one that I found. I'm pretty sure this plant does...
In my shipment of plants I got last Thursday all the plants looked horrible except the N. Ventricosa 'Red'. I potted it in a four-inch plastic pot in sphagnum moss and put it by the window. The paper I got with it says the highland like temps of 50-70 with humidity of at least 50%. The temps by...
By an army of red fire ants! I've been in Florida for the past 6 weeks and I was walking my friends dog and stepped on an ant hill. I didn't notice and just stood there for about a minute. Next thing I know, I feel this horrible burning feeling on my foot. I look down and there are about 100 red...
I am a former physicist (ABD--didn't finish dissertation, so no Ph.D.) working now in the energy industry as a quantitative analyst.
I began reading about carnivorous plants as far back as I can remember, perhaps 5 or so. I bought my first venus flytrap in 1980, when i was 10, from a comic...
Dispite the horrible odds my car was fixed in a few hours on saturday so I was able to get to the second day of the orchid show. here's the best shots I was able to muster with their "no tripods allowed" rule.
This is one BIG Phal. ambile!
Well a trip to the local Lowes had me rushing to grab a few things. In my shopping I grabbed a small purple pitcher plant and a small Sundew. I also grabbed a bag of Sta-Green Sphagnum Peat Mohttp://www.sta-green.com/Product....ss . Here is what I have going.
I have a very small pitcher plant in...
from Home Depot... Gubblers.com
i believe this is an N. ventrata, but the post Merkin had, i got confused. please clarify this for me.
soory, horrible pic. half of the pitcher is pale purple, the other half is green.
i have this also from the box store. i have no clue what this could be...
I recently recieved a nepenthes truncata thru mail order, plant had two pitchers and all the leaves save one one were a bit beaten up. Now even after life in a terrarium all the leaves save one are toast. True the remaining leaf is healthy and green but it is one leaf!. My plant looks...

Here's a little 'Asian' check-off list to determine how Asian are you. I received it in an e-mail a while ago, and I found it to be pretty funny. I * the ones that applied to me, and the (words) at the end of each one are just my comments. I didn't mind reading about the typical Asian, but if...
this was originally published in 2000, but it applys to today i think. if you can tell me who wrote it ill send you 1 D. capensis seed(trust me you only need 1)
If you've been to a gas station lately, you have no
doubt been shocked by the prices: $1.67, $1.78, even
$1.92. And that's just for...
Is there a plant equivalent to the SPCA? What motivates this question is the incredibly horrible treatment / negligence of the garden centers with regard to watering, lighting, and air circulation. If they don't sell them fast enough - they die a slow death.
i got some capensis who arived five days ago and are doing horrible , all growth is going black and the new growth have black tips, is there a way to save them or are they doomed to a hidious and agonizing death?
