Took me a few tries to track down local bogs. Found many swamps the first few times. Eventually, I found a bog bordering a small lake (more like a pond, in my opinion) and went for a short walk:
It was really too easy - the boardwalk goes straight up to the bog, and Sarracenias were visible...
I visited another bog early this morning. I've been to this location several times but, the S.purpurea here are unusually beautiful. This is also the only place I've seen Drosera x beliziana, the natural hybrid of D.intermedia and D.rotundifolia.
Drosera rotundifolia
Drosera intermedia...
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...
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...
Drosera adelae is creating several clones of itself, and a tray full of sphagnum moss had 3 rotundifolia sprout in the past few days, with quite a few more expected to sprout. Dunno where all the seeds are, they just sorta popped up randomly. Anyone want spares once they get larger?
Hello everyone. I have 100+ seeds of Nepenthes reinwardtiana red (West Kalimantan) available for trade, possibly more. The seed was harvested on May 22, so it should germinate well. I'm looking for sundews, plants or seeds. I'd really like some temperate sundews such as rotundifolia, capillaris...

Hey Guys! I don't post very often, but have enjoyed reading what everyone has learned about cps through the forums.
As Dragoness has just demonstrated...sarracenia can be pretty tough. Many other forum members here have also shown off their bogs in areas normally too cold for most cps (which I'd...
So, I ordered seeds of D. rotundifolia from a nursery owned by a well known educator in Maryland, and wanted to know if they were already stratified. I assumed they weren't and they have been on the fridge for several weeks now. I would like to know if that was a good idea, and if anyone else...
Hey all! It's been a while...long story short, I'm moving to a new place here in Gainesville that has some outdoor space and I'm thinking of downsizing my collection (pretty much exclusively Drosera now) to those that can do well outside year round.
9a indicates winters that can get down to...
Spring has sprung and the bog awakens.

I don't have much variety, but what I do have is a lot of a few. I spent my Sunday afternoon spreading the plants out (D. intermedia, D. 'Multifida?, D. nidiformis, D. rotundifolia, and D. capensis. I went through 2 bags of LFS and ran out of 2" pots. A lot of the plants are ticked off right now:
I've had a couple "shots in the arm" with pygmy sundew gemmae and other assorted things, but what was once a thriving collection of butterworts is down to just a few. I am also missing a few basic sundews, like D. adelae, anglica, and aliciae. Here's my current grow list. Those with asterisks I...
Hi! I'm offering a freebie to pay the generosity of HCarlton forward. The winner will get a choice of either a nice sized division division of a typical VFT, (which btw survived this past winter in a container, above ground in Zone 6B) or a small pot with several flowering sized Sundews, a mix...

Once I was in a store and there was a corner in which some really strange plants were standing.
They shall eat meat or something like that and they are probably dangerous. No risc no fun. I took one of the glistening with the sticky leaves.
About 10 years later ......
