My main interest is to have in my collection, every last known pinguicula so if you have one not on my grow list let me know. Beyond my Ping obsession i have very good luck with petiolaris and tuberous drosera and would like to enlarge my collection of them too. I always have lots of nepenthes...
Here are some macro pictures of some sticky plants I took today with a new accessory for my camera. I got some extension tubes. I'm very happy with the results.
Let’s make a little game out of this.
2 incorrect names are in the following list. Are you able to identify the plant picture with...
Tonight for about 3 hours it will hit 32F. Do I need to bring my plants inside? Certainly not the temperates, correct? But what about the following...
D. dichotoma 'giant'
Mexican Pings
D. adelae
D. graminifolia
D. ordensis
D. Dee
D. capensis
Thanks!

My Stylidium is going mad. I gave it a little fertilizer and now it's flowering like a maniac and has about 20 offshoots that are surrounding my also flowering D. ordensis out in full sun in Wisconsin like the English Armada. I plucked one and put it in a pot next to my S. flava 'copper top', it...
If you recall last year in mid Dec I posted this picture of a few D. ordensis plants I had sprouted from seed:
(about 3.5 months old)
Well, even though they went dormant for winter. They woke up right on time. Here are pictures of the same plants today, I'd say they're growing up nicely :)...
Drosera falconeri 'Palmerston'.
Drosera ordensis, looking much better in my new setup than it ever used to. The traps are a more intense orange than they appear to be in the photo. I also find this species very difficult to photograph, for some reason, hence the blurring!
Drosera kenneallyi...
Riiight...
So about 1.5 months ago I saw my Stylidium in the windowsill with a D. ordensis was only making a few leaves at a slow pace, so, I gave it a little orchid fertilizer and it has since made about 15-20 offshoots and I moved it outside in full direct sun for most of the day and it now...
We got two kittens from endo-doc, one is particularly annoying. We let them outside from time to time and might make them outside cats, they stay near the house and our adult cat guides them. Well, the orange tabby is the adventurous one and certainly my CP's don't like adventure. My kitten runs...
Hi, I was able to cross my wonderful blooming falconeri x paradoxa with one of my stunning blooming ordensis mulligan's lagoon. The seedlings are perfect for shipment and have unbelievable color already. Super healthy, and should be a fantastic never before offered rare hybrid drosera for your...
Some shots of the few Petiolaris complex sundews I grow.
Drosera paradoxa
Drosera ordensis X paradoxa
Drosera ordensis - Just coming out of dormancy.
Drosera falconeri - Just coming out of dormancy.
Some better pics of my Drosera falconeri before dormancy.
Looking for nepenthes. These plants are on the smaller side and are starting to go dormant. They just don't like me :( D. broomensis "clumping" and D. ordensis. I could probably pull them through dormancy but to be honest I'm lazy and want more room for nepenthes. The D. broomensis is an adult...
Hope they live! These are D. ordensis, D. broomensis and D. petiolaris. They are directly under a 250 watt MH my my lowland terrarium.
Here's an old pot of D. paradoxa just for fun. It's got 2 different shaped plants in there and I can't figure out what the difference is lol. One kind...
H. neblinae (I think- that's what I bought it as. If anyone thinks otherwise, please let me know)
Adding a new light and extending the photoperiod has made my D ordensis grow better
I pictured my D stolonifera in flower a few weeks ago. Its grown somewhat since then.
I think this is D...
So far all i've ever had is D. paradoxa and D. falconeri.
I just splurged and bought adult D. aff. petiolaris "Giant" adult D. broomensis, and 2 D. ordensis (they are so pretty !)
Apparently the first two are "clump forming".
I've got a 250 watt MH, really high humidity, and my thermometer...
Last spring I had a bunch oif casualties, particularly when I put my butterworts outside and they got drowned in a rainstorm. Most have been replaced already. Some died within a week and some died throughout the year. So..... if anybody happens to have extra plants or leaves they can spare, I'm...
I just found aphids all over my woolly sundews. I don't even know how they got in my terrarium. They seem to be attracted to Ordensis and Falconeri's mostly. I need help in getting reid of them. I have a classic terrarium set up, So what a good and safe way to kill off all the aphid with out...
Hello everyone,
Its been awhile since I posted a message. I've been involved in cross-pollinating and germinating various Petiolaris Complex specimens in my collection this past six months. Drosera ordensis has been my choice species, as I've had the fortune of having 2 clones flower at the...
Well I havn't been active on this forum for a long time. I thought I'd post my growlist up here so those who remember me can see that i've progressed from my single VFT
Here's a link to this growlist on the CPUK Forums where I am active: lil_flytrap_KID's Growlist on CPUK
Drop me a PM...
