hybrids

Even though my plan was to collect specials, I started looking at hybrids a while ago. Xmas is coming and I want to get my self a few plant presents. What's your fav hybrid?? and what would you recommend? or how to decide?

Hey folks just testing the waters here. I have a very well established little clump of typical Cephalotus here that is growing well and beginning to produce mature pitchers. It's about the size of a silver dollar. I'm not really sure what exactly I am looking for but things that come to...

So late last year and into early this year I gave away hundreds if not thousands of hybrid Nepenthes seeds from hybrids that I was able to make because of pollen donated from both this community and a few others. The "donated by" refers to who gave me the pollen that made the crosses possible...

I want to propose a question with some pics for comparison. All of these leaves are at close to the same point in development. You will note that 2 have significantly longer tendrils. Is the tendril length before the leaf unfurls, in any way indicative of HL or LL genetics? Would love to hear...

Has anyone grown a Nepenthes hybrid with particularly strong "hybrid vigor", either faster growing than the parents, or more tolerant of conditions outside the preferred range of the parents? I have noticed this trait in some hybrids, but not in others. One example I can give from my own...

Hello everyone ! I think some of you may already know me from the CPUK foum where i've been a member now for almost 2 years, but for those of you who don't.... I got into carnivorous plants quite by accident when i went to collect some free plant pots offered in an advert, and i also came away...

Have: D. dichrosepala ssp. dichrosepala "Fish Track Rd." D. allantostigma Slight chance that D. scorpioides and D. roseana may be available soon--have to see how much they produce. Would like to trade for any pygmies or pygmy hybrids not on my growlist. Please get in touch via email, NOT PM...

At the end of this week, I'll be ordering a hybrid Nepenthes. However, I'm having trouble chossing which one I want, I like then all, but I can only get one. So I decided to ask people more knowledgeable which one they thought is best for slightly experienced newbie. The ones I like are as...

I've been wanting to add a few Disa species to my ZA plant collection but, most of the vendors here in the US seem to be defunct. I've found a few hybrids here and there but, I'd really like to get some pure species. Does anyone know of any nurseries or private growers where I might be able to...

I currently have gemmae available for trade from D.omissa "Pink Flower" and D.rosea. I'm looking for gemmae from Pygmy Drosera that I don't currently grow. No hybrids please. D.omissa "Pink Flower" D.roseana Here's my current list of Pygmy Drosera: dichrosepela x'Lake Badgerup' (patens X...

I am interested in getting a N. spathulata and some spathulata hybrids from a local nursery, but I am not sure I have the proper growing conditions. 9-10 months a year, I have intermediate-highland temps, with daytime highs of 80f and nights at 60f, in mid-summer, though, I get lowland temps...

Although spring is my favorite time of the year, I do like the fall pitchers of many of my Sarracenia. My leucophylla and alabamensis clones are at their peak right now (although their gluttony is rapidly spoiling their good looks) and I'm seeing a new flush of growth in a number of hybrids...

Does anyone know of a good source of Colchicine powder. I am planning on experimenting on Drosera hybrids in the hopes of creating fertile hybrids, but all the biological supply stores I usually shop at don't carry it.

I am currently waiting for my N singulana x hamata hairy red to come in but want to be prepared for it when it gets here. What conditions would best fit this little beauty? Highland is what im leaning towards but i know hybrids are sometimes more resilient to their growing conditions so i was...

Hi All I need some advice please - I have some seedlings in a terrarium which id like to move into the greenhouse. what should I be considering or keeping in mind with the move? They are growing in sealed bags so the humidity is very high - but I would keep them in the bags in the GH. im...

I have a few gallon size pots (and 1 smaller) Sarracenia divisions from last Spring that I am looking to trade to diversify my collection. As such, I am looking for established seedling hybrids (or bigger) to trade for my plants. I have the following to trade: Rubra gulfensis x Flava (gallon...

So after much research on previous threads about importing plants nepenthes hybrids from EP, I think I have everything down but would like conformation still. Also if i am not aloud to talk about companies other than flytrapshop then if possible could the mods just delete the thread. I need...

Hello all, Is there a resource known to this community that lists what species are capable of hybridizing on their own in nature? I realize that with artificial pollination most species can be crossed. That's not the intention of this post however; I'm hoping to discover which plants share...
