I've been interested in tuberous Drosera for a while now, but given how rare they are I haven't had a chance to grow them yet. I'm thinking of getting some seed from the ICPS seed bank, but does anyone know how difficult it is to get them to germinate? I've had only bad experiences with growing...

Hey everyone, I figured this would actually be a pretty good place to try and get some info. Some of you may or may not know Steve Stewart, but he was a pretty active grower of carnivorous plants. He's written a few articles for the ICPS publication and was well versed in CP's. I met with him in...

So I have a small collection of plants, some doing well, others not so well. Lately I've gotten the bug to upgrade my growing conditions and I'm thinking about upgrading my old wireframe Lowes rack into a terrarium, or adding a terrarium to my collection as I can. My plan is to source things...

I thought it would be fun to try to find some of the oldest carnivorous plant cultivars out there. The ICPS has a cultivar list with dates, so I thought I'd find some of the older ones and post them here. It would be neat to see if any of them are still around and if they aren't try to find the...

Hi guys! I just received some seeds from John Brittnacher over at the ICPS, one of which is a packet of Drosophyllum. I have literally spent almost 10 solid hours over the weekend reading every last scrap of forum conversation about its germination, the ICPS grow guides, and every word written...

Hello all!! I was looking in the fridge for "something to do" and found that I still have lots of Sarr seeds already packed up... I did a giveaway back in 2009 but these were nicely dried and have been in the fridge since then. Some people have even posted pictures of their Sarrs from these...

Here are mine from Homedawg plus a few others from the ICPS seed bank.

The one with the Uncreative Name has returned with another question. (I have sooooooo many questions. :p) If any of you who currently are reading this have stumbled upon my Interactive Grow List and Eat Counts :water: and/or my photo thread, you would know that I have a lovely Drosera spatulata...

Greetings all, I am procrastinating right now and avoiding responsibility for just a few more minutes so I thought I would make a list of some of the carnivorous plants I think are best to start with- a long with some comments. This list is meant to be pretty general and is perhaps USA centric...

Lol you guys all clicked on this because you thought I was moving and giving away my pitcher plants. No such luck :lol:. I'm talking about my cephalotus. It has refused to grow or die. It just sits in a ten gal. in my basement and does nothing. Since the icps show last summer. I've heard people...

Up for auction is a pair of CP posters signed by various CP persona. Me and Heli got them signed at the ICPS show last August, then handed them off to the NASC, Kitkor held onto them and will ship them from his location (I decided not to bring them up here to make shipping cheaper for American...

You are bidding on: one 4 inch pot of Sarracenia psittacina seedlings. This is a pot with a bunch of seedlings. To tell the truth I meant to transplant them but got over run by these plants. The cross was made my me here in Kula, Maui. These plants were originally acquired as seeds from...

"Climate: highland This is a lovely miniature form of the species and although from a wild population, it was legitimately described as a cultivar by Dave Evans in the ICPS Carnivorous Plant Newsletter, published in March 2009." - Borneo Exotics Grown in Singapore :-O

I remember seeing a great Heliamphora auto-watering set up for an indoor tank: Plants sit on egg crate elevated over water. Small submersible pump drives water to some sort of self-sealing white tube that runs the length of the tank black tubing attached to small drip nozzles connects to white...

I received a few inquires about how I germinated D.Regia seeds on compost. This was my first attempt at growing what I affectionately call the "uglies". They are by no means a plant I like, I am just an equal opportunity germinator. I read a couple of threads on other's experiences germinating...
