I needed to divide my big heliamphora minor today and, motivated by Aviator's thread about other heli division I decided to make a little report.
Hi!
My heliamphora minor after months of vivid growth started to grow smaller pitchers and got a bit crowded which means there is no more room...
Spring has sprung around here, and it's time to take some pics!
First, the outdoor dwellers. The Darlingtonia have arrived and I really should trim last year's pitchers:
N. ventricosa x aristolochioides proves again to be impervious to cold by spending a third straight year outdoors on my...
Read about the "Bugweed Method" here.
These plants are from seeds I had sown in Feb/Mar 2007. Seeds were from the ICPS seedbank.
Seedlings were grown under lights 24 hours 7 days a week and warmed with a seed germinating pad thermostat controlled set to about 81F. Plants were feed sporadically...
Up for grabs are 12 Maximilian Sunflower pups, they are several inches tall. Here is a picture of a mature plant that is flowering: (not mine)

Hey everyone,
I've been trying to expand my VFT collection, with some trades and great generosity i've managed to get my hands on some guys that I thought I'd share with you guys...
last year I had a planter outside with my outdoor bogs that had 25 or so VFT's when it just so happened the...
Just an update on the seeds that I bought from RL7836's charity sale a while back. See the following thread if you don't know what I'm referring to:

I just got asked if there was an alternative way of doing heat, humidity, and lighting. I currently have a fishtank, submercible heater, and a Grolite.
Any ideas how to get these "ducks in a row"?
So. Did some shopping to prepare for getting some nep seeds in. Here's what I got:
2 bags Long-fibered Sphagum
2 bags 'desert sand mix' (alabaster stone chips, volcanic lava rock, west desert sand, West coast fir bark)
1 bag charcoal.
2 12 x 18 trays + 2 plastic covers
2 150 watt equivalent...
Ok, I know I'm not the only one who has browsed the threads on here trying not to slobber too much on the keyboard while viewing the pics of many of the fine collections represented on here only to look suspiciously towards my neps and wonder just what the heck I was doing wrong.
This is the...
So today, in order to make room for my new nep seeds (thanks Tropics), I decided to give
my baby pings a somewhat more permanent home. The first 3 cells (going left to right,
starting with the top row) are p. rotundiflora. The next 7 are P. Esseriana, and the
remaining are P. Yucca Do 1713...
OK. I have always pronounced it as aero-pastal. Really "aero" with a noticable E sound, and not "arrow".The "post" part of "aeropostale" I pronounce like the "past" in "Pasta". I actually asked the dude that worked there yesterday, and he pronounced it as arow (like "a row boat" with A and Row...
HILARIOUS Blog! I found it last night at another forum. I definitely will be a little more patient with pharmacy technicians and pharmacists from now on.

This is my mini bog that i finally got up and running. The wind has been just pounding the set up for a couple days. I had to cut out the 12 set flower stalks cause they were damaging the pitchers. Overall the set up size is nice cause it will be just small enough to move and store in my garage...
A friend of my wife's has a whole row of shrubs/hedge she is going to rip out soon, to replace with a fence..
We can take some if we want them! dig them out and transplant them..
but the only place we have for them would be in fairly heavy shade, and I need to ID the plant to see
if it can...
I had some time to kill today while I was waiting for the Nascar race in Talladega. That's a great track by the way. I was sitting on a swing that is next to a fence around my property. On the other side of the fence is a row of trees. In the leaves I heard something moving. That's nothing...

Hey Everyone,
I have a little mini bog that I made outside in my "Serenity Garden" which receives filtered light until around 11 o'clock in the morning. In the mini bog i have an Adalae, Capensis, and Aliciae, and these plants have been here for at least a month now. Everything seemed to be...
Tuesday and Wednesday night's we had a scattered late frost in eastern NC. I didn't think it was going to be anything to worry about because it was suppose to be very brief. Being right on the cost I thought the sarr flowers would escape damage.
I have been spending a lot of time in the last...
Today I noticed one of my VFT seedlings actually has a flower stalk! Crazy, huh?
The seedling with the stalk is in the upper leftmost cell of the tray (from Slack's Giant x Slack's Giant). You can also see that one of the seedlings in the tray has a red coloration like a Red Dragon - in the...
