In the spirit of past NASC teaser threads and suspecting that some day soon, we'll be hearing from the NASC folks when this year's auction will be held and what conservation org will reap the benefits of our efforts --- here's a thread to share: - what items you'd like to see in this year's...

Greetings. I'm from Nebraska, but have started reaching out to local zoos and children's museums to let me put my plants on display for a week or two. I've had quite a bit of bites already and am going to be putting together an exhibit this spring at a museum and two local children's zoos...

This is my last -stravaganza thread until the Sarracenia are ready in spring. I think I have a pretty unique setup for my pinguicula. At least I've never seen anyone else with a setup like it. I'll start with a tutorial showing how I made my setup for my pings. In the tutorial, the plant...

Following my -stravaganza theme of thread titles, I am starting a thread for my sundews. Up next are my pings and heliamphora. I wouldn't say I have a lot of sundews but my collection is steadily growing. I grow all my sundews in my homemade grow rack which I'll show a picture of in this thread...

I sent in a request almost two weeks ago but haven't heard back, and noticed that the inventory list has not been updated in several months. Has the seedbank been abandoned?

Offer is now closed. I will announce the TWO winners at 5pm PST. Well, after the NASC auction and the last two years’ worth of seed sowing, I have more seedlings than I know what to do with. So it's time to give back. That being said, I would like to offer a small flat rate box ($5.50)...
