I got this plant in a trade today, but the person I got it from doesn't know what it is. I'm tempted to say vulgaris, because it looks like what I have grown before as vulgaris. Also, does anyone know whether Meadowview's vulgaris is really vulgaris, or is it macrorhiza? The picture they have of...

Hi Folks:
If you are looking for a cause to donate to, I have one. We have been awarded a $50K challenge grant from the Mary Morton Parsons Foundation for the Center for Biodiversity at Joseph Pines Preserve. So far we have received $3k in donations which leaves $47K more to go. We must...
Hi Folks:
I hope you are making it through this tough winter in good spirits. Some good cheer for you. Our webmaster, Mike Smith, has just uploaded our spring catalog. Please take a look at www.pitcherplant.org. We've got a few new items, but we've had to pull several Sarracenia because of...
So after putting my entire Sarracenia collection on the back burner for years, I finally got around to taking a weekend to remove the shards of broken plastic that were once pots and clean and divide them. I'd like to trade these off for Nepenthes, Genlisea, or Sarracenia species varietals not...
Hi Folks:
Our fall newsletter has been mailed out to current members but is also now available on-line at our website. You can read the newsletter via a pdf link in our "News" section on main page, featuring a solicitation letter, or go to the newsletter link. There are lots of exciting...
Hi! I have a group of 6 plants of D. intermedia seed grown from Meadowview stock. These are nice sized plants, 2"+ across. One is even putting out its first flower stalk. I prefer to concentrate on my Ocean Co NJ line and don't want any cross pollination. The plants are free, but shipping is at...

Rather than starting a new thread every year, I decided just to make this thread instead. I'll start with pictures from July. The species that are somewhat rarer are labeled, if known.

I'm wondering what's going on with one of my Pitchers. I got it from Phil at Meadowview late last summer along with another and a few assorted other plants. It's called "Red Flame". Anyway all of my others are in varying stages of development. The "Lemon" I got along with it is in full bloom...
Our new prospectus about the Joseph Pines Preserve is available on our website at http://www.pitcherplant.org/The-Joseph-Pines-Preserve/index.html. Click on the pdf in the section about "The Center for Biodiversity". There's a lot to read there but if we're asking for $1.9 million dollars we...
Hi! I'm a newcomer here, and a relative newcomer to CPs. Because of space limitations, grandkids and animals I don't do any indoor growing but in the last couple of seasons I've been trying to slowly redo my property with plants indigenous to the area. Last spring I took a half of a poly barrel...
I'm looking for this Meadowview cultivar of S. x areolata. I have a long list of Sarracenia and naturally-occurring hybrids with which to trade. Please PM me for details if you have this plant.
Thanks in advance!

Hi Folks:
We received word the other day that Meadowview has been awarded a conservation grant of $2800 from the ICPS that will be applied to the balance on our Central Virginia Preserve note. The ICPS grant will cut in half the remaining balance leaving only $2800 to pay off. I would like...

Hi Folks:
We've started work revamping the preserve section of our web site. We've now got a link called "Meadowview Preserve System" which then has subsets called "Joseph Pines Preserve" and "Central Virginia Preserve". I'll be talking about both preserves at the ICPS conference but for...
