So some sort of chewing insect is circulating among my Sarras and other outdoor plants. I got a bottle of Ortho Systemic Insect Killer (active ingredient Orthene, aka acephate) but I'm a little confused. The bottle says to apply it to all surfaces of the affected plants, which won't be easy for...

Hi, This spring a gave my N. viking to a friend, that species is too fast and too big for me, and it likes plenty of full sun, that I don't have. At our Italian cp annual meeting I saw the same plant with 4 flower spikes. Even if I'm planning to visit Thailand in January (including the Aopanga...

Please be considerate! I know this sounds stupid, but I'm convinced most people don't understand it- so I'll spell out what I hope is obvious. If you hit a motorcyclist, there is an incredibly high chance of causing serious damage to the rider. If you threaten a motorcyclist, it is much more...

Dear all, I have been growing VFTs in Singapore (tropical climate, temperates consistently about 28-30 C a year) for about two years now. I have not given my VFTs any dormancy for the two years that I've had them. Although they still look vibrant and alive, I feel that I need to address the...

I acquired some Cephalotus seeds a little while ago and have not had any time to plant them so they have been cold stratifying in the fridge for about 2 months now.  I am curious as to what is the best medium to plant these seeds onto?  If I plant them onto sphagnum moss only, I risk the moss...

Do all nepenthes produce basal plants. The reason I ask is because I have a N. thorellii hybrid that is growing to high for my shelf. The plant is about 24" high. I want to take cuttings from it but don't want to kill the plant. Should I wait to see if it make a basal plant or should I risk...

So, when I first started learning about CPs, I figured I wouldn't want to get a Cephalotus - as spectacular as they are - because they're so durned expensive, hard to find and (I had read) fussy. But recently I've been thinking about importing one, since they run a lot less overseas. Then today...

No I'm not stopping growing cps, but blowing this joint. Obviously since I've been here for 1.5 years I should give a good reason. Terraforums is a great place with good potential-but TOO much potential. I mean by that-it has expanded so that there are a gigantic diversity of people. Now at...
