Hello again,
I've noticed growth differences in the two D. finlaysoniana circulated by the ICPS seedbank, labeled as "pink flower" and "white flower", respectively.
Conditions of Growth

.....it gets a little nauseating seeing all the slime balls that have been banned from this and other forums for very valid reasons (scammers, ripe off artists, and thieves mostly) posting "like there's no tomorrow" on popular group pages, including the ICPS facebook page.
Maybe I shoulda kept...

Here are some mediocre photos of my Drosera finlaysoniana. They're annuals grown from seed from the ICPS Seedbank. Seed was planted on March 9th in a water filled test tube. It germinated in 11 days and was potted up on March 22nd. In 3 months, they've grown to a height of almost 6 inches, still...
I harvested some seed from my Drosera burmannii on May 9th, 2016. The plant is all green, even the tentacles, although growing in halfway decent light ( bright enough to color up the hitchhiking Sundew in that pot ). The flower is a light pink. I've posted photos of this plant and its flower on...

So while bebopping around on the web, I happened upon the ICPS site which I had not visited in years. I came across the following advice for encouraging Nepenthes to form new basals:
"If it is a long stem it may be better to encourage the plant to grow a new basal rosette. You do this by...
Hi there.
After a pause of almost 10 years in growing CP (new jobs, moving abroad, etc) I'm finally starting again slowly.
For now I'm filling a homemade greenhouse in a plastic box (fitted with leds lights) and also growing a Sarracenia outside. After one year it still alive so I think that I...
Been wanting to break into these for awhile, and finally got a chance when the ICPS seed bank opened back up in late July. I did some reading, including the stickied thread by Pyro here in this sub-forum, and this settled and filtered out of all the agregate:
They are in a sand-heavy mix...

I have some Cephalotus seeds that will be coming soon, and would like to ask for a clear and concise guide for growing them from seed. I have read the ICPS growing guide, and I think that will do the trick, but if anyone has any other "magic" tips for me in regard to stratification time, media...
Hello all! I haven't been very active on this forum, so this will be my first official contribution!
So yesterday I recieved 10 Drosera Regia seeds from Petar Kostov. To those of you who do not know of Petar, he's a skilled grower from Bulgaria who specializes in Regia and Drosophyllum (in...
