Two days ago I noticed several ants hanging around my tray and I got kinda excited because there's been a shortage on flying insects. All my pitchers had nectars dribbling down them and by the time the ants were all captured, all the nectar were gone ^_^.
They managed to reach the pots...
I can only write about what works for me in my particular conditions in the Pacific Northwest, results may vary for someone else. They are outside in full direct sun 8-10 hours a day throughout the growing season, from about April/May to October/November depending on outside temps. Outside they...
I have a few gallon size pots (and 1 smaller) Sarracenia divisions from last Spring that I am looking to find good local homes for. I am in Westminster Colorado and request that you pick the plants up so I don't have to disturb the root system by shipping them. I have the fallowing:
Rubra...
I have a few gallon size pots (and 1 smaller) Sarracenia divisions from last Spring that I am looking to trade to diversify my collection. As such, I am looking for established seedling hybrids (or bigger) to trade for my plants. I have the following to trade:
Rubra gulfensis x Flava (gallon...
Super happy about those square pots but couldn't resist. I mean I was gonna get charged 10 bucks for shipping I might as well buy some plants.
Been buying a lot of bare root plants and I realized today that there's something really awesome about having them pre-potted. I can just plop them...
Greetings everyone! New to the forums and longtime carnivore plant lover. I have four 4ft sunblaster T5's high output with reflectors about 11 inches from the ground and 7 inches touching the top of the pots. I am growing about 8 different mexican butterworts, drosera regia, 3 different...
I realize this is a beginner plant, but I still like them! Usually I sell rooted cuttings but I ended up picking up some and they're a bit smaller than I usually try to sell. So, since I have so many, and they're a bit smaller I dropped the price a bit. Time to get one, if you still NEED one...
This is def common knowledge but I want to share my joy because my friends don't care about Cps ^_^
Bought this Ventrata 2 months ago and it had two plants in one pot. So I divided them into two pots and placed them in two different environment.
The first one hangs under my roof near my front...
**I will preface this by saying I am not an expert, I have only been growing CPs for 5 years (but only really got into them in the last year) and there are many people here with vastly more experience. This is a summary of my experience and what I've learned about these horrid creatures. If you...
WOOT WOOT new Nepenthes just in! (New photos update)
Sorry for the bad quality photos, I was going to school when I received the package and hastily repotted and photographed them.
I love the fact that the seller included LFS and pots in the package. I also got a free bonus plant. Plus I...
Hey all,
Just a feeler thread.
I have an abundance of established grape plants, all with great root systems. Some of the same plants were planted in the ground back in June, grew tremendously fast, and have yielded fruit. These are in pots however so they just need to expand their roots a bit...
While trimming a small shrub I came upon a pair of pots that I had forgotten about since last year. Not a question that they both have been outside since the end of last summer. Both were severely overgrown with weeds, and when I cleared them out I found one contains a specimen of native Prickly...
School is fast approaching, ushering in my typical forum absence. I don't often post pictures of my outdoor collection, but taking pictures is a good way to pay some attention to them. Most of these plants are thanks to the generosity of fellow TFers. :hail:

One of my Sarracenia...
I have read about 5 different methods of germinating Nep seeds, and have decided that I am going to give it a GO. Going to order a couple species of Lowland neps, and give it a shot. The site I am looking at currently offers Rafflesiana, Tenax, Albomarginata, Madagascariensis, Truncata, and a...
I recently put most of my pots into a trough system as opposed to saucers but of course when it rains the trough fills up quickly which leads to the top of the plants being flooded. I know that most cps love being flooded but I have noticed some of my sundews being stunted in growth and I see...
:-D I hated to take a chance on buying these alleged Carnivores from Europe but took the gamble and won. They got here in 6 days... bought seeds months and months ago of Regia from an eBay Seller in Great Britian and it took 3 months to arrive and the Seller mailed them immediately upon closing...
