Hello!
My Byblis liniflora seeds have started sprouting, and I thought I would share what I'm doing with them. This is my second attempt at growing them, my first attempt was actually 3 years ago when I first started growing CP's. The Byblis was my first ever CP grown from seed. :-D pic..
So...
I am working with a researcher at the University of Arizona who is studying carnivorous plant genomes. He is particularly interested in plants with the smallest genomes and Genlisea aurea and margaretae are at the top of his list. It is difficult to obtain much test material because these plants...
B. liniflora cuttings worked for me. This time round, I had the chance to try out another species when the whole pot of B. guehoi fell over and a branch broke. :lol:
About 2 weeks later...

New plant potted up. And ready to go to another parent. :flowers:
Since it was...

Greetings. I have a mature Byblis liniflora that I grew from seeds I bought. My Byblis has been flowering repeatedly and I now have plenty of liniflora seeds.
However, what treatment should I do with the seeds? I'm told that they need a cold treatment for a few weeks before sowing. Should I...
I have two pots of B. liniflora plants that are flowering. Over the past few weeks, I've been pollinating the flowers and collecting the seeds conscientiously. I left the seeds to air dry before packing them into mini ziploc bags to be stored in the fridge. However, I noticed yesterday morning...
Greetings. I have a Byblis liniflora growing in my indoor terrarium. Looking good so far and it's been flowering nonstop for about two months. However, it's leaning and growing against the glass upwards and it's starting to get too tall for the terrarium.
What would happen if I trip the stem...
I am new to growing B. guehoi but it seems to do as well as B. liniflora in hot and humid Singapore.
Just 3 days later...look at how much the "branches" have grown!
Really strong "glue".
Greetings. Welcome to the factory. I shake you warmly by the hand.
I started constructing this terrarium back in January. Bought myself a 10-gallon terrarium, a 125 watt CFL, cut some glass to make a glass top, and bought about $300 worth of plants and growing supplies. It seems everything is...

Back in 1988 I was a student of horticulture at New Mexico State University (NMSU). I had a student job working with the Chile breeding program, supporting staff and graduate students. I was permitted to grow a few CP, using my own materials, in small idle areas between benches in the Chile...
Hello folks!
Excited to join the forums and get more nerdy/involved with my hobby - carnivorous plants!
I got into carnivorous plants in July 2010 and set up a subtropical/highlands terrarium in a 10gallon aquarium, and the plants have been growing great, of course causing me to not be...
I've noticed that when I insert a pencil into the B. liniflora flowers and went from flower to flower, the actual flower petals start withering the next day and the ensuing pods are fatter than if I left them to their own devices. I'm not sure if it's the cross-pollination of the plants or just...
Thought i would share some photos at my first successful attempt at growing B. liniflora...
first time i tried them, i received a few bareroot plants in a trade (obviously those died, byblis hate that)
i then tried some seed after that, i spilled the pot with the seeds....
so i finally tried...
