This happy little chappy is a self set plant in the live sphagnum of the Darlingtonia 'Othello' tray. Traditionally the first of this species to flower annually.
For those not familiar with the species. the colour on the above is a little washed out as is the norm with photographs of blue...
Hey guys,
3 months ago I bought this P. Laueana and since then it has been producing smaller and smaller leaves. I have kept it in the window where it got plenty of sun most of the time and the soil has been kept moist with the tray method. Also I live in the netherlands, so spring is just...
I suppose it's about time so I'll start with some recent pictures. Quite a few actually.
Plants waking up outdoors.
Some native Oregon sphagnum I'm growing with the outdoor plants, covered with netting to discourage those pesky birds.
My crazy S. "Daina's Delight" growing more than 100...
Hello everyone. I have been in the chat and lurking around a bit so thought I'd finally put together an intro thread. I'm just starting to get into carnivores aside from some success with Nepenthes before and a failure with Darlingtonia outdoors over winter some years back. I have a 4ft T5...

I grow my Mexican pinguicula as houseplants. Usually, they do really well and thrive under my conditions. However, this year I have had a few losses to browning heart disease. My soil mix is peat/silica sand/dolomitic lime added. The ratio of peat/sand is ~40/60 with 1/2 tbsp of dolomitic lime...

3) We are paying for shipping...
Two days ago I saw that my grandifloras were in full bloom while my vallisneriifolias are just now coming out of dormancy. I really wanted to cross these two this year because the valls are probably old enough to bloom now. So, I needed a way to save the pollen. Hard to do with a flower that...
Hey TF. I've successfully pollinated a Mexican ping for the first time. My two p. moctezumae clones flowered together. This was at least two weeks ago. The corolla has fallen off, and the ovary is very visibly swollen. How long does it usually take for seed to ripen? What are common practices...
Hey tf. I've recently gotten interested in hoya, and I'm looking to trade for a few to get a feel for them. I have pinguicula to trade, leaf pulls or small struck pulls mostly. A few other thing though.
LF: Hoya rooted starts or cuttings (not h. carnosa.)
What I have to trade:
P. 'Titan' small...
Hi Everyone,
I am fairly new to the CP world but have been growing bonsai trees, orchids, air plants, and miniature gardens for approximately 8 years. I am currently growing Heliamphora, Nepenthes, Pinguicula, Utricularia, Drosera, and Cephalotus plants. I think it is safe to say that I am...
Here's what I have in my small CPs collection:
1. Venus Flytraps---normal morph x3
2. Unknow hybrid Sarracenia---could be some S.minor hybrid x2
3. S.leucophylla---x1
4. Pinguicula primuliflora---x1
5. Drosera spanthulata---x1
6. Drosera intermedia----still seeds, not germinating yet LOL
It is P. moranensis alba x P. agnata True blue. Although both of species are easy for grow and cross, I am so exciting to see my first cross flowering. It took almost 2 years from seed to flower.
