I posted this on CPUK forum but i am trying to get as much info on this as possible so those who have already read this...forgive me:-)
I grow my plants in terrarium but this contribution to the forum is not as much about terraria as it is about artificial feeding of CPs so if needed please move...
Does anyone have tips of growing this? I received some seedlings from Jfoley, Thanks!, and she said that they might not survive shipping. But they did! Ha! The evil men of the shipping office have once yet again failed at an attempt to thwart my incoming plants. ^^ I think that they have...
Hi.
This is my first year growing tuberous sundews, and I started with a pot with 2 D. Auriculata in it. They grew fine, died off, went dormant - but they've been dormant for over a month now and I wasn't aware that you were supposed to protect them from dryness and the sun - so I left them out...
Hello.
I have some seeds of New Zealand sundews and one Australian sundew that I'd like to trade.
I can only trade for other CP seeds, and only certain ones, as my country has restrictions on this sort of thing. I have limited numbers, so first in first served. The Drosera Arcturi was harvested...
It just amazes me how big is the ability of some drosera species' seedlings to catch its pray. I checked on my D. peltata seedlings today and saw how 3mm plant successfully caught .5cm fruitfly:

I just hope one day when she grows up she will not eat me:-)
I read in Stewart McPhersons new book, entitled "glistening carnivores", that tuberous drosera, in this case d. peltata, will still go dormant over its set dormant time, no matter what. Is this true even if I left the plant in the trays and kept watering it? Or do I have to dry the tubers out...
Cheers! :beer:
Ima bein' a postin soon, but probably not often.
I recognize many friendly faces, so I feel right at home here.
I grow lots of drosera, and if I had to pick a favorite, it would be d. nidiformis. Its a boring plant, but you almost never see it, and it spreads like...
So, I've had great success with my tuberous sundews this year - D. peltata shut down early but D. gigantea and D. stolonifera are still looking good though our relatively short summer and now a bunch of cold dumpy weather. Yesterday it rained hard enough to knock some of my pots over so I...
Hello everybody!:-D
I have a problem that urgently needs to be solved and I am seeking help here. I went to the carnivorous plants exhobotoin in Prague ...anyways that is irrelevant lets cut to the case: I bought my first tuberous drosera (peltata). I had to travel 400km back home and when i...
Hi everyone! I have a small Nepenthes Fusca "Flared Peristome" for trade. I got the plant about a month ago, and it has refused to grow for me. I also got two other highlanders with it, N. Talangensis, and N. Tentacula, both of which are growing great! Since my other highlanders are doing well...
Last year i decided to build a bog garden in front of my house, it was a much larger project than i thought it would be. I started by digging out a flower bed that nothing would grow in, i dug the entire bed out to 18 inches deep, the Bed is 25 feet long and 6 feet wide. I then used material...
Warning!
Like me, this list is old & outdated!

Nepenthes Hybrid (Unidentified) about 18 years old!
(I had sent pics and samples to a few suppliers/friends, who said it looked to be an old Victorian type hybrid and suggested a possible parentage...

I planned on giving the seed away, but I have been sending out so much seed to people I have no more seed for common varieties so I am looking for any seed but capensis in trade. I will use the seed I receive to send to people who are just starting there collections.
I will pack the seeds in...
