    Plastic cups over VFTS in the store? kill em or save em?

    Recently I was at my local garden center and was pleased to see a variety of cps ( VFTS, S.purperea, S.rubra, P.primuliflora, D.spathulata. And wouldn't you know it they were all covered in what some refer to as "death domes". The pings were all flowering and the VFTS looked happy, the drosera...

    Some questions about Neem Oil

    Let me preface this by informing you that I've recently realized I have a thrip infestation of my outdoor Sarr's and VFT's (and my non-cp plants as well).

    Apollonian's Indoor Collection

    This is where I'll post about my indoor collection. I decided to be so public with it because I am very serious about making it better (all within means of course!). I recently lost a great many of my older plants, though a few decade + ones survived my year off at university. As I plan on...

    hello!

    In recent years my hobbies have been focused around living wall set ups & growing orchids indoors. About a year ago I acquired two N. alata that were very patient with me while I figured out their care. Then I recently started looking into pings when I developed a gnat problem in my orchid...

    Sarr dormancy in botanical gardens?

    There are a couple reasonably local botanical gardens that have carnivorous plants in their collections... The closest one (Matthaei) has a couple Sarrs, in with some VFT's and Drosera. And a hybrid unidentified Nep or two. The farther, but nicer one (Frederik Meijer) has a much broader...

    Drosera intermedia seed trade.

    This trade is for D. intermedia seeds. The plant was sold to me labaled as "Hardy Sundew, Drosera intermedia". I have had it for 18 months. It has flowered profusely in that time, frequently dropping seed in the LFS substrate of the terrarium where it lives, resulting in herds of volunteers...

    New Arrival Question

    When receiving new Mexican pings, do you immediately take leaf cuttings or do you wait until the plants have been established, before doing so?

    Looking For Replacement Pings and Sundews, For Trade

    I've had a couple "shots in the arm" with pygmy sundew gemmae and other assorted things, but what was once a thriving collection of butterworts is down to just a few. I am also missing a few basic sundews, like D. adelae, anglica, and aliciae. Here's my current grow list. Those with asterisks I...
