    Flora's little list

    So I don't have a lot, but i'm super proud of my plants. I talk to them and tell them they are doing good. They seem to like it. Here it is: Outdoor: I have four S. purpureas, a couple i lost the tags for, so at this point i call them all purpureas. I have a S. Red throat, a couple Luecophylla...

    Patented Sarracenia; What does this mean for growers?

    While checking out photos of Sarrs on FB, I ran across the name 'Cobra Nest'. Looking it up on Google, I discovered that it's been patented by one of the co-creators, James Booman. Patent US20020104139 - Sarracenia Plant Named 'Cobra Nest' - Google Patents I'm unsure of how common this is with...

    Introducing Riverside Carnivores!

    A garden requires patient labor and attention. Plants do not grow merely to satisfy ambitions or to fulfill good intensions. They thrive because someone expended effort on them. I have been growing carnivorous plants since 2013. My goal is to one day obtain a carnivorous plant garden with a...

    Matt V's photo thread!

    Just wanted to share some photos of my neps and their progression. I grow my plants under LEDs. The problem I struggle most with is low humidity but it seems like really bright light helps harden my plants and sphagnum (resist drought). Ive built a second grow box to house larger plants though...

    U. gibba

    I have several handfuls of U. gibba for trade. This is a easy to grow aquatic species. Mine is cultivated in RO water and very clean and free of algae. I'm looking to trade for: Mexican ping leaf pulls or small plantlets. Sarracenia seedlings or plants, species or hybrids. Terrestrial...

    N. maxima -Ok for windowsill?

    I've mostly run out of space in my grow tent and heated lowland tank. I've seen some very nice maxima varieties available recently (Gunung Lumut-the false Eymae, and wavy leaf). I was wondering if these would be hardy enough as windowsill plants. My apartment conditions are pretty bad for most...

    Nepenthes boschiana Pollen Available Soon

    I have an inflorescence starting on my male N.boschiana, pollen should be ready to harvest in about a month. I would prefer that the pollen be used on a female N.boschiana or to make potentially interesting primary hybrids. Standard 50/50 split on all seeds produced. I will bump this thread as...

    I'm looking for any South American Drosera. Particularly interested in D. graomogolensis, D. solaris, D. esmereldae, D. felix, D. ascendens, D. villosa, and D. meristocaulis.

    Neps in Hawaii

    About a week ago I got back from a trip to Hawaii, the big island, where we visited a Nepenthes nursery (can I name it here?). It was amazing and so big and full of awesome plants that we spent about 3 and a half hours there. Here's a bunch of pics I took before it started raining. Some of the...

    A few Sarracenia

    First, thanks to everyone that helped with my last post! I'm back again with a few more plants that seem to be missing their labels. Most appear to be hybrids, but there might also be a few cultivars/species in the mix. While I don't know the full story, I know at least some of these were...

    Proper taxonomy for hybrids?

    I'm concerned about nepenthes in particular, but I guess this question applies to all of horticulture. When I write about hybrids I'm never confident that I'm obeying the rules. Here are some of the variations I've seen. N. x ventrata The "x" indicates that this is a hybrid. I assume that this...

    Aquilegia Giveaway

    For giveaway I have 300+ mixed seeds from double-flowered perennial Aquilegia (also known as Columbine or Granny's Bonnet) hybrids. The seeds are from blue and pink flowered varieties of A. x hybrida, and may also result in hybrids thereof. These appreciate a cold stratification, but don't...

    Sarracenia division for trade

    I am offering this sarracenia division. It came to me labeled only as "sarracenia species" so I really have no clue what it is. It did flower this spring (pics included below) and the division you are getting ships with whatever flower stalks are attached. I never bagged or Covered the flowers...

    Has Grafting Been Used to Extend the Heat Tolerance of Cool Growing Nepenthes?

    A pretty common technique these days where one species or hybrid is a cool grower is to graft that plant onto a more temperature tolerant rootstock. It's often observed that a heat tolerant rootstock confers greater temperature tolerance on the grafted plant. If anyone wants to discuss...

    Nepenthes diatas Pollen Available Soon

    I will have pollen available in a few weeks from Nepenthes diatas and I'm looking for potential females. I would prefer N.diatas of course but I know that's a long shot. In the case of hybrids, primary hybrids are always preferred. Let me know if you've got any interesting females coming into...
