leaves

Hey TF. I think this Pinguicula esseriana is suffering from crown rot or BHD. I am leaning towards crown rot, because some of the leaves are showing necrosis at the leaf tips rather than it coming from the base. The plant is growing in an uncovered tank under 4 4' shoplights. Watered by tray...

I have a rooted nepenthes Miranda cutting. It currently has it's first open pitchers that are around 4". The plant is in a hanging pot and is approx 10" across the leaves. I am looking for any sarracenia I do not have. I only have about two species of them so there's a good chance I don't have...

Upon my nightly scuttle, I happened upon a very nice phalaenopsis. Im a sucker for the Doom-Bin plants at the back of the supermarket. However, I normally never buy orchids because im very skilled at killing them. Also, I dont really know much about them. I currently have a vanilla orchid, but...

I've heard from some care guides (One specifically in mind) that the cultivar 'Titan' enters succulent growth in the summer, rather than in the winter. This seems really strange to me given the parentage (agnata x macrophylla), but I have increased the photoperiod in my growspace, and my 'Titan'...

We've had in characteristically cold weather where I live so I've been hanging the plant out during the day and bringing it in at night to avoid the cold. But sadly, I left it out last night and the temperature hit freezing. Now the majority of the leaves are brown and wilting, not to mention...

I just received this but it had no ID and I have no idea what ping it might be. I notice it has no dew on leaves so I think they are winter non carnivorous leaves. Here are the photos: Imgur: The most awesome images on the Internet Thank you for the help.

Hi all, I got this plant about a month ago. Came lush, green, and healthy. I potted it in 45/45/10 peat/sand/lfs and put it out in a tray in full sun. First it turned bright red - looked happy. Lots of dew. Then, one day, I noticed the leaves were disintegrating. Any ideas? Thanks all in...

This thread is in no way intended to be an endorsement of illegal marijuana use. Indeed, one could infer from this discussion that consumption of trichome resin is harmful. One internet writer showed photos of cannabis trichomes, claiming: "There is no other plant like this in nature". I...

hey all! It's been quite a long time since I have posted anything and quite a lot has happened. I lost most of my already small collection of CPs over the year due to negligence on my part (things just dry up so quickly in hot/dry weather, and my cat likes to drink all the water out of my...

I wanted to wait before I said anything concrete, but as I ended up trading away most of my test subjects, it looks like things are on hold for awhile until the next batch of seedlings are large enough, and anyone who knows me, knows that I can be impatient with certain things... This began...

I was watering my plants today, and I noticed these on the stalks of the "leaves". Is this a scale infestation? If so how should I treat? Can I just pick them off until they don't come back, or will it require some sort of chemical aid? Also are the utrics sensitive to pesticides?

Hi, This might be a really noob question but, do most Nepenthes cuttings produce leaves before roots. I have a tray of 6 N.Eldon Lee cutting and every single one has produced leaves but no roots. I know they will eventually root but is this common and is there anything I could do to stimulate...

I've had an N sanguinae for a few years, and in the past week or so the leaves have been browning. Because I'm not at home I can't get a picture for you quite yet, but the leaves are splotchy and a picture should be coming at around five today. So far it is only on the sanguinae, though it's in...

Hello everyone, I was just wondering if these spots are normal on dying leaves? The leaves at the bottom of the stem have died, and this one is developing spots rather than just turning brown. The stem is also starting to brown, but i think that is just the stem turning woody. This plant is...

Recently, I jumped on a sale of U. Reniformis (though I have not grown any of the orchioides utrics previously). As with any new type of plant, I am overly paranoid and have a few questions that I haven't found answered in the guides here (which I have read religiously). I feel like I'm...

Hi all, I found this little fern(presuming that it is) growing in my garden. I have actually noticed it a few years back and each year I check to see if it is still alive. It's got really strange looking leaves which I think is really neat.

Disclaimer: I already posted this on FB, so some of you may have already seen this...apologies in advance for the very poor photo quality. One of my Drosera regia seedlings is doing something very odd - it seems to have grown 2 carnivorous stalked glands on the single cotyledon it has. The...

While extricating a division of U. nelumbifolia from a rather narrow necked glass vessel that I planted it in while it was much smaller, I accidentally ripped it into a bunch of pieces. One has some leaves and most of the stolon mass but there's also several 1.5'' or so pieces of stolon that...

I need some help here with my N. ventricosa x "Lady Pauline". I've had it for 2+ years now and it's just leggy and scrawny looking. It was sold to me from a reliable ebay seller as a seedling. I've been growing it under intermediate conditions mostly. I thought after the first year, it was in...

New England has had a few hot days recently, but I didn't think much of it until today. I looked at the bog tray and saw a forked leaf sundew unfurling a pair of new leaves. One of my VFTs appears to be doing the same. I cracked open a window and the room rapidly dropped to a reasonable dormancy...
