I was just wondering if anyone here starts neps in vitro? When I was in Arizona I bought one little tube with a very small nepenthese in it and of course the store that I got it from was not going to tell me who sold it to them. They said is was someone local. ???
Now with all that rambling...
What does everyone recommend as the best way to propagate sundew clippings? I've got a bunch of different kinds of dew clippings and I really want all of them to take.
Hello, thought id join in and post some updates of my basement plants. (not including my sarrs, vfts and some dews.)

After experimenting with this method last year, and having had some success with the flower stalk cuttings (above 80%), I thought that I'd repeat it; since a number of my Cephalotus plants are in bloom, there will be no shortage of seed this Summer. The cuttings were planted in a compost of...
hi everyone...
I believe that my N.ventrata is flowering... I try to find some images but i cant find anyone when the flower stem is "just appearing" (i mean, to compare with mines) ... in a few minutes i will upload some photos of mines..
here is the question... this n.ventrata is a clon...
Hello Friends,
A few years back I made an interesting cross between Drosera filiformis "Florida red form" and Drosera tracyi"white flower, antho-free". Finally after a long wait, it has finally flowered and shows some interesting characteristics of both parents involved. Introducing; D...
D. x hybrida (filiformis*intermedia), Burlington County, NJ - plant coming out of winter dormancy
Here is a pic of the likely plant. I have several of a similar size and will choose the largest one when it comes time to ship.
Here is what the plant will look like once summer rolls around...
D. filiformis 'all red' from Washington County, FL
D. ascendens from Serra de Ponta Grossa, City of Campo Largo, Parana State, Brazil
On Valentine's Day of this year, I took a leaf from D. ascendens & D. filiformis 'red', placed them in tubes filled with water** & put them on an east-facing...
Drosera schizandra - very large plant. This species is not available very often and when it is, the plants are usually 2-3" or smaller. This plant is growing inside a 5" diameter 'humidity dome', which it's leaves are hitting & curling on all sides (1/4-1/2" curl on each leaf that's hitting as...
Not sure if anyone really notices... :0o:
..but the new plant is formed at the tip of the leaf pulling!
Another example: A leaf growing out of LSM produced another new leaf with its own stolons
Randomly poking around looking for pictures of N.platychila because I can't wait until mine grows out of those tube-like lowers to those nice jacq-like uppers, I found this site. Now I don't know Japanese (I'm guessing that's what the characters on the site are in), I do know Nepenthes and...
Hello! I have teamed up with another member of this forum to bring this trade forward. I know for FACT that these seed are good since not only am I currently having good success germinating them (first time ever! See http://www.terraforums.com/forums/showthread.php?t=120965 for my post with...

Hello, well after finding out i had a pest on my nepenthes in a trade felt i should take some action and ask the forum if anyone could identify the pest and how i can treat it.
the nepenthes was inside a propagation tank along with tons of cuttings that were rooting, and tons of germinating...

My appreciation & thanks to all who expressed an interest in helping with this project.

I have several test tubes of D. ascendens (water propagation via leaves) that are ready to be potted - specifically:

i managed to procure for myself a P. cyclosecta. unfortunately, from shipping, the plant is in rather VERY shoddy shape. many of the leaves have been torn off and i can't even make out what's left of the main plant--cant find the growing point, and no roots. i planted what i thought was the...
i was thinking...would it be a smart idea to remove a couple of leaves from a wooly sundew for propagation, if you saw signs that it was heading towards dormancy? or would this kill the plant?
it just seems like a good idea, since if you "lost" the plant because of failure to maintain and bring...
