    My Trip To British Columbia

    I'm currently in Tofino, BC, on day 9 of an 11-day excursion to British Columbia. Managed to see a lot more CP's than I thought I would. Day 1 of the trip was in Seattle and I visited a certain place that grows and sells carnivorous plants. Saw a lot of cool plants there and bought a few. I...

    Travelling to British Columbia - question

    I will be travelling to British Columbia in May, to Victoria and then Tofino. I was just wondering if anyone on here has gone there before, from the U.S. We just got our tax return, so we're gonna buy our plane tickets soon. We are trying to figure out the best way to get there. We will be...

    2 new U. sandersonii (typical and blue)

    Well here are my newest additions. I hope they will be ok because USPS was stupid and sent them all over the country before getting them to me. They were sent from Seattle, WA area to New Jersey on the frozen east coast before sending back to Palm Springs. Maybe USPS is trying to mismanage...

    "Darn Shroomers - get outta my yard!"

    I didn't really yell that out the window today but in the last 2 weeks I've watched several lone teenagers in "rave clothes" (baggy clothes and stocking caps) very slowly and methodically patrolling the woodsy trails and park behind my condo. From their pose and quick looks to see if anyone's...

About 750 people showed up to oppose Martin's plan at a hearing in Seattle last week, despite being given just seven days notice. Bill Moyers has a...

    We might take the train from CT to Chicago to Flagstaff, AZ. Has anyone ridden the Chicago to LA train and how was it? I've been on the section from Flagstaff to LA, but a lot of that's in the middle of the night. The only other long distance route I've been on was LA to Seattle, which is a...
  12. Not a Number

    Hi All!

    Greetings Everybody! I'm just getting into CPs. I had a hardware store VFT bought in 1968 or so that somehow managed to survive in a big jar on a kitchen window sill for 12 or so years. It might have lasted longer but sadly I went away to college leaving the plant behind (would Seattle be too...

    Ok, so I kind of a newb here. I've loved plants my whole life, and always been intrigued by the venus flytrap. However, growing up in Oklahoma, I never had ideal humidity, or even survivable humidity for the that matter. I moved to Seattle when I was old enough to, and now, I finally, at 23...
