    Cutworm Control

    I've been trying to figure out the past two months what has been chewing on my sarracenia with several flower buds disappearing, a couple immature pitcher lids being chopped off, and scarring along pitchers causing deformation. Today I finally discovered at least one culprit: I pulled a...

    Red Splotching, any advice?

    Hello all, I've always lurked around but haven't really posted much. Regardless, I wanted to get some advice on some red splotching going with my ventricosa x glandulifera and lowii x campanulata. Could this be too high light levels? Cold damage (although I doubt it)? Something I should be...

    Looking to get into orchids, any recommendations?

    So my terrarium and outdoor pots look kind of bland, and I've always found orchids interesting. I noticed that they seem to have similar nutrient and soil requirements to CPs, so I was thinking of growing a few with CPs. I was thinking of a crane orchid for venus flytraps and sarracenia, and...

    Easy Office Nepenthes

    Hello Office Workers! I was recently asked to find a showy Nepenthes that reliably produces pitchers in a somewhat sunny office environment. The requestee has no real experience with carnivorous plants and would prefer not to have a terrarium. Supplemental light is a possibility, but the main...

    Howdy from Memphis

    I'm a returning CP enthusiast trying to get back into the hobby. Luckily, Memphis is a great city to grow Sarrs and other temperate CPs. I look forward to reading and learning the vast amounts of information that you vet growers generously post on these forums. I also got back into the hobby...

    Darlingtonia flowers 2015

    The first of my flowers for this year which is along way in front of all the rest. This is the first ever flower from this clone.

    Nepenthes sp 'philippines' ID?

    I received a plant labelled N sp. 'philippines' from Bruce Bednar a few months ago now. Its thrown out a few pitchers, the first of which was pretty deformed while it established itself to my growing conditions. Its now opened its third good one under my care, so I am starting to look for an ID...

    Two N. ventricosa x (thorelii x aristolochiodies) are in a northeast facing window and haven't been pitchering.

    S. flava withering and deformed?

    So I got 2 divisions of mature S. flava from a giveaway, and for a few weeks they were all making new good growth, lots of flower stalks (which I trimmed off) and lots of developing pitchers. However recently as the pitchers have just about to open, they turn brown and slope downwards, then...
