lowes

This plant was bought at Lowes and has been in non-stop flower since oct 2010 "][/URL]

So, I wasn't going to post this due to my previous bad luck and I didn't want to jinx myself. I bought yet another CP from Lowe's. It looks pretty good and they changed the "Cube" it comes in from the Hard Plastic to more of a softer plastic. There was barely any condensation inside the...

this is a picture of the normal vfts at lowes <a href="http://s1104.photobucket.com/albums/h337/rball0406/?action=view&current=typical.jpg" target="_blank"><img src="http://i1104.photobucket.com/albums/h337/rball0406/typical.jpg" border="0" alt="Photobucket"></a> This is what I got today <a...

Hello everyone. Sorry I haven't been on. I have been very busy getting acclimated to Washington State after the move. I unfortunately had to leave my plants behind in Indiana and so I stopped in Lowe's today and bought this kit. It is my attempt to get back into my favorite plants :)...

Hello all, count another amongst the growing legions of CP fanatics! I'm very green when it comes to growing CPs, I've only got a D. capensis I've rescued from Lowe's (though it's doing quite well if I may say so). That said, sundews are thus and by far my favorite type of CP. Let's get...

Just some photos I took today: Full Collection Nepenthes Miranda. Has quite a few growth points. I got it last fall, finally got one in good condition. Has been growing in my window this winter so that's why it's growing sideways. When I bought this from a local nursery it was labled as...

Hey folks, This is my first attempt at growing orchids. Well, if you must know, it's actually my second - my first attempt happened at college and came to a sudden halt when I thought it would be a great idea to mix up a strong batch of Miracle Gro and flood the pot with it. But I digress. I...

I know it's pretty sad, but it's what I've got to work with right now. A few weeks ago I changed the lights from just a plain aquarium setup to some cheap (but better than what I had) grow lights from lowes, and put foil around it. The N. Khasiana's old leaves got alittle discolored and spotty...

Nepenthes: Khasiana Ventrata Spectabilis "Giant" x Aristolochioides Truncata "Pasian" No ID, possibly Alata Ramispina Ventricosa "Black Peristome" Miranda Truncata Queen of Hearts x King of Spades Drosera: Capensis Aliciae Nidiformis seedlings Capensis 'Red' seedlings Dichotoma Prolifera...

Anyone have any idea what kind of Sarracenia this is? I got it from Lowe's last year and of course i put it through dormancy and now it's waking up and i thought i could be a Sarracenia rubra? Sorry about the sucky pic you probably can't even work with that hold on and i will take another pic...

So, I've never really posted pics of my growing arrangement, because everybody's greenhouses and terrariums put my lowly college student-budget windowsill to shame! At my low point I only had about 2 CPs to my name (bad plantsitter while I was abroad)... dark days. Now, four years later, a...

Hello terraforums! So for the first time I've gotten one of my nepenthes to flower! :woot: I've had this guy for 4 years now It is my unknown Nepethes from lowes. Here is a picture of the pitcher. Any clue on the sex of the plant? Or the species for that matter... Thanks for looking...

Since carnivorous availability changes with the seasons here, I figured I'd run into Lowe's to see if they'd started getting some things in since it's warming up a bit now. Lo and behold, they had a relatively fresh shipment of plants in. VFTs, VFTs... tons of VFTs. Until I spotted two cubes...

This is my bog garden i made today and it has two Drosera filiformis in it not sure which var. it is but then i have three typical VFT thre pitcher plants one Sarracenia purpurea subsp. venosa, next is unknown probably a Sarracenia rurbra or a Sarracenia judith hindle i got it from Lowe's and...

Well, I'm trying to go through my collection and find extras of stuff and figure out what I still want. I just redid my cobra/vft minibog and found out I have extras from there and other places, and want some stuff too... Please only in the U.S. If you don't have stuff to trade, anything that...

Ok so i got this new mini greenhouse and tons of new plants so ill keep posting pics over the next few days <a href="http://s1104.photobucket.com/albums/h337/rball0406/?action=view&current=SANY6882.jpg" target="_blank"><img src="http://i1104.photobucket.com/albums/h337/rball0406/SANY6882.jpg"...

I have some pitcher plant seedlings that i am growing indoors and since it is really warm i thought i might put them outside so would it be the right time with this forcast...

I have a S. 'Judith Hindle' that has about 14 pitchers. about 5 of them are not all green. the tips of some a brown like tree leaves during fall. i don't understand the reason for this. i got this plant from Lowes and it was fairly small so it couldn't have been that old. could it be that i have...

So I just put new soil in my terrarium and I am having doubts about whether it will work or not. I know most people recommend a general soil of 1:1 peat/sand mix. the problem is the only stuff I could find at Lowes was an "organic peat" which I was told was the same as peat moss. I think the...

How does one get rid of soft brown scale on a Sarracenia? Mine is a S. purpurea. I know they are sensitive to contamination so I'm afraid to try a spray or a systemic insecticide. On my non-carnivores, I have had good luck with fish emulsion, but I am pretty sure I don't want to spray that on...
