Hello All,
After a very long hiatus (I grew CPs on my windowsill as a kid and wanted to be a botanist... but somehow ended up teaching French for a living ???), I've rekindled my passion for carnivorous plants. I live in New Haven, CT and am lucky to have two very big, very sunny...
Unfortunately only one of 3 made it but todays its birthday!

I had really good luck with my last trade post for my extra rotundifolia seeds. I just collected the last few stocks I had in my mess of rotundifolia, and have 3 more packets of seeds to trade. Each packet will contain around 50 seeds.
I am open to any offers for trades (seeds or plants)...
So in my pygmy drosera pots, there are large cultures of gnats growing. They started to hatch out today and there are a ton now. Not quite sure how to treat this. I guess I kept them too wet or something. What should I do about this? I put a bunch of drosera around the area to catch all that I...

I acquired several Drosera last summer but when transfering to new containers several weeks later I forgot what was what. I believe the one in this picture is a spatulata but would like to double check that. It's preparing to flower so it must be happy. I have been told on several occasions that...

Kind of curious.
What humidity/light intensity/temperature do you keep your pygmies at? I'm specifically dealing with Roseanna right now. I'm having pretty good luck, but am always interested in adjusting what I've got going on if better ideas surface.
At the moment they are experiencing...
(i tried the search function on this topic but couldn't get any good hits)
last night i spent an hour or so tediously applying small bits of ground up, wet bloodworm "goo" to the leaves of my new pygmy's. ( i fed one leaf per plant) one pot of species is far too small and numerous to bother...
Here they are...
Why can't the grow in the same pot? I foolishly didn't add sand to the top portion of the mix, so algae/mold keeps growing and is overtaking them. They're in my greenhouse with natural sunlight and good air flow. So when can I repot them without setting them back in growth...

Just got two pots with pygmy drosera and they have gemmae. The nursery owner was the one who pointed it out... They're so small I can barely see them. How do I harvest them?

rafflesiana 'Dark Brown' (100+ seedlings)
longifolia 'Very Dark Brown'...
There is this brown algae, maybe not even algae... Perhaps it is a bacteria. It is brown and it grows on top of the peat. I think I also have some of the same stuff growing in the water of my bog trays, it is like a film on the surface of the water. I don't know what it is or if it is harmful...
Merry Christmas everyone, I am looking for the following plants because I am having trouble finding any:
Stylidium Debile
Utricularia Nelumbifolia
Drosera Capensis 'Albino'
Any easy pygmy drosera sp.(I want to try, but sorta intimidated)
