    NECPS Bog Trip - Western Massachusetts - August, 2014

    Today the NECPS got together in western Massachusetts to visit a few of the local bogs. We toured 3 different sites in the region and saw some amazing plants. Site #1. While the CP's we saw at this site were impressive, the orchids stole the show today. The general habitat where all the...

    Purp Seeds Wanted

    So none of my Sarracenia purpurea flowered this year, and I was really wanting to grow out some seed stock of this species. If you have any material with location or subspecies data that would rock, but I am down for anything. As your seed becomes available just let me know. I could offer...

    sarracenia pitcher problems

    I've been searching the forum and the interwebz to no avail... I bought a nice Sarracenia "Dana's Delight" last summer. It grew in full sun on a fire escape along with some VFTs and a S. purpurea. Everything went dormant in due course and spent the winter on a windowsill in an unheated...

    Variation within a Species... Posters!

    I will be giving a lecture at the upcoming ICPS conference on Sarracenia and part of my lecture is discussing the definition of a species and how much variation is allowed within a species before a plant needs to be split into a new species. Too often people get the idea that a species...

    Hello from Charlotte, NC!

    Hi everyone! My name is Zach, in case you couldn't tell from my cryptic username, and I am rather new to this whole carnivorous plant thing. What started as a fascination for the unusual has, in five short months, become a full-fledged addiction. As of right now, my grow list is as follows...

    Sarracenia P's and Q's

    Pictures and Questions, that is! Learned a few new things in a thread started by Jimscott, so I decided to make a new thread to show some pictures, and ask some questions. At any rate, I offered seeds from a plant that probably won't produce any viable seeds :blush: (not knowing any better -...

    Sarr dormancy in botanical gardens?

    There are a couple reasonably local botanical gardens that have carnivorous plants in their collections... The closest one (Matthaei) has a couple Sarrs, in with some VFT's and Drosera. And a hybrid unidentified Nep or two. The farther, but nicer one (Frederik Meijer) has a much broader...

    Backyard Bog-In-Progress.

    Last year, I decided to buy a Rubbermaid style plastic tote, sink it in the ground, and put Sarracenias and VFT's in it. It worked great, but looked a little too redneck... for my tastes anyways. Come fall, I trimmed off the taller pitchers, and put the lid on the tote, and buried it under a...

    S. purpurea in Theodore Wirth Park (Minneapolis, MN)

    Took a 10 mile stroll from downtown today to visit this park, which I only recently realized existed (a great personal failing after seven years here). Chief among the attractions is the Quaking Bog, a small naturally occurring sphagnum bog (park literature says it has an estimated age of around...

    Stolen CPs...What a bummer!

    Well the title says it all. Over the weekend, now that school is out, there have been a lot of restless individuals in the neighborhood where a friend of mine lives. This friend of mine permits me to keep a small garden of temperate CPs on his back porch knowing that I am in between...

    Hey, I doubt any of you remember me. I was Flytrapshop's very first repeat customer :p been awhile since I signed in. I was in a traumatic car accident years ago and lost my entire plant collection I was bringing to a show. Covered in radiator fluid, I was just sobbing at the thousands of...

    Some Sarracenia grown outdoors

    This has been a tough year for my outdoor plants. First of all, I ordered this batch of plants from Mike Wang, who grows them in CA outdoors where they experienced a short, mild Winter and an early Spring. When I got the plants in February, most of them had begun Spring growth already and many...
