    Rarity of Genlisea

    I've been wondering for a long time why Genlisea is (or at least seems to be) so rare. The ICPS suggests growing them like terrestrial utrics, which doesn't seem particularly difficult to me. And a few sources mention that they can be weedy like terrestrial utrics. Yet I don't know any place in...

    Any recent experiences ordering from Allen Lowrie?

    There are old threads addressing results from orders placed with Allen Lowrie but they are mixed in opinion and over 5 years old. I'm guessing that some here have more recent experiences and if so I would very much appreciate hearing what you think. His catalog is a beguiling list of rare and...

    All Things Petiolaris

    It seems to me that there is a lot of interest in sundews of the petiolaris complex but not a lot of information out there. I consider these plants to be some of the most beautiful and interesting of all Drosera, if not all plants. They continue to be rare in cultivation and expensive to buy...

    Growing tuberous Drosera from seed

    I've been interested in tuberous Drosera for a while now, but given how rare they are I haven't had a chance to grow them yet. I'm thinking of getting some seed from the ICPS seed bank, but does anyone know how difficult it is to get them to germinate? I've had only bad experiences with growing...

    Hybrid vigor and temperature tolerance

    I'm getting back into growing Nepenthes after taking a break for the better part of the decade. I'll be ordering my plants later in the week, and I've noticed that there is a much larger range of hybrids available, especially hybrids between highland species that were rare in cultivation until...

    looking for Hydnophytum simplex

    I'm looking to round out my ant plant collection. Hydnophytum simplex doesn't seem to be very common in the US (it's easier to find in the UK) but maybe it has made its way over the ocean in recent years. We can discuss what I have to trade in the rare event that someone owns and can part with...
