pings

I've had these 2 P. moranensis growing for about 5 months. These are my first pings so I am still new to this. They had been kept wet but then winter came and their leaves looked different; a little smaller but not tiny like pictures I've seen of other pings in winter phase. I figured they...

I want to expand my CP collection but don't have any CPs to trade with. I do however have an excess of some aquatic plants that I can trade off, some grown emersed some submersed, I will try to specify which. I'm making the list mostly from memory without going down to check the bins at all so...

I have set myself a line in the sand....only 1 10 gallon terrarium allowed inside....course no rules for the gh. :) Anyway, I wanted it to be cheap and efficient. I did have some humidity issues at first but found a natural solution.....building a bed of living LFS and it works...

I used to grow a lot of CP's back in the day, mostly Nepenthes, sundews and pings....had to give up my massive collection due to family health issues....all is well in the world again and I am looking to start up another collection to keep me nice and insane! I obviously dont have any CPs to...

These two are the only Mexican Pings I have left, using pure perlite and sphagnum as media. The recent cool (70s) and bright weather got them to colour up. :-O P. x 'Sethos' - I've known this hybrid to turn pink in my conditions but it's been a long time since they managed to get the correct...

Hello! My name is Katrina. I've been collecting Cps for about 3 years now. I've recently joined a couple Facebook groups and am considering going to one of the BACPS meetings. My Facebook friend Jim introduced me to TF. This is my first post! Here's what I've collected so far...

I have a P. "Pirouette" that started blooming this summer and hasn't stopped. Recently, it split into three (I can count three distinct crowns) and there are more little offsets underneath the plant. It is blooming... enthusiastically. There are five flower stalks and at least one more on the...

So this here is my first seed pod of what I believe to be P. planifolia X 'Pirouette' but I have to say despite my hopes I am a bit skeptical. I was under the impression that P. planifolia could not hybridize with the Mexican pings and if it was to self pollinate it needed pollen from a...

I am aware that many pings commonly grow on rocks, but what other CPs have left the ground and taken to mountains and trees? What Epiphyte and Lithophyte CPs are commonly kept?

Hi everyone! I just built one of the infamous harbor freight 6'x8' greenhouses. It's been great to have so far and I'm slowly stocking it full of cacti, succulents, Pings, and Drosera. It is heated to 40F and goes anywhere from 50-70F during the day. I check it twice a day and noticed that...

I got this ping from a trade a while back and while they arent my thing i was like wth. It has been steadily growing in the recesses of my terrarium for a while now until one day i finally noticed it bc it was like 10x it's original size and looks to be making a second growth point. It was...

Its November and only my Laueana is asleep! Pirouette is still growing carnivorous leaves. I've watered less and reduced its photoperiod too... Could it be that it's dividing that it hasn't gone dormant? Then again my pings act weird here...for instance, Laueana didn't grow carnivorous leaves...

Anyone have advice on dividing this thing? Since it flowered this summer, my alice sundew has divided 3 times, making 4 total sundews stuck together. I just don't know where to begin. I have only separated pings, sarrs, and VFTs. Here are a couple pictures:

I was at a local garden center today and brought home a new ping, which has inspired me to see if I can put a name on my other pings, so there are my mystery pings: 1) The one I got today. 2) This one has been turning rosy. 3) My first ping! Any input would be greatly appreciated!

I'm a graduate student at Cornell University, and I have heard from school faculty and fellow students that there are several areas on and immediately adjacent to campus where Drosera rotundifolia, Sarracenia purpurea v. purpurea, and Pinguicula vulgaris populations are present. I live right...

Northwest Florida has a humid subtropical climate. Will all three varieties of pings (temperate,warm-temperate, tropical) grow comfortably outside?

I have 8 reflectors measuring 22" long X 4" deep X 2" tall, these are approx. measurements as they are old used reflectors and may be slightly bent at one end or the other. 1 reflector measuring 17" long X 2.75" deep X 1.5" tall, approx. measurements, old reflector...blah blah. 1 24" all glass...

Hey y'all, I'm looking for N. Viking (Mirabilis var. globosa) species and hybrids. I'd be most interested in Viking x amp (red) but I'd definitely consider anything else. I'm also looking for: * Always looking for clones/plants of tentaculata *** * ampullaria * eymae * glabrata * gymnamphora *...

Due to the fact that they live inside, my temperate pings wake up at odd times of the year..... :D ~hcarlton

I'm looking for P. lutea and P. caerulea. I'll trade some yr old sarr seedlings, VFT seedlings, VFT seeds or sarr seeds for them. I'm trying to build a North Carolina based bog garden and those are the only plants i'm lacking. Thanks!
