spring

Figured I'd add this here... I've got some succession pictures for you. First, though, I will give you some background on this plant. It came out of dormancy this past spring and flowered for me, because I wanted to get seed from it, and my FTS Maroon Monster was flowering and I thought that...

I can already tell some plants are hitting the slow decline to dormancy, and the rest will probably slow down soon too. Because everything is outside in natural light, or behind a window with the same, even the Neps stop pitchering for the season once the hours of daylight dips beneath their...

Hello, my name is Nick :) I live in Richmond, Michigan. I currently have a small indoor greenhouse rigged with lights and a homemade humidifier for Nepenthes and any other tropical cp's I find to like, along with a couple cacti. I have a few sarracenia/temperate sundews/VFT's that are going...

Drosera × beleziana or D. × belezeana or D. × eloisiana or ? In 1891 the 5th volume of Journal de botanique. contained the description and drawing by E.G. Camus of a plant he named Drosera x beleziana. He described the plant as a natural hybrid of D. intermedia and D. rotundifolia. The specimen...

Well as the title suggests I'm kinda in the market to trade or buy some seeds and cuttings Cuttings of ; Nepenthes vetchii Nepenthes Attenboroughii Nepenthes lingulata Drosera schizandra ( in the spring figure I'll start my search now ) Seeds from ; Drosera regia Drosera derbyensis...

First, my apologies to all whom are owed something from me (mostly email / PM responses but possibly more in some cases). Second, I hate internet drama & this message may come across as some permutation of that - so, once again, my apologies. My wife & I have been planning for many years to...

Sarracenia rosea seed Sarracenia rosea seed collected from my plant Oct. 2015. Price is for one packet of 15 seeds and includes shipping in a padded envelope. If ordering more than one packet, each additional packet price is only $7 each. If you are interested in buying multiple packets...

Due to a bumper crop of one, and the generosity of a friend on the other, I have more of both of these than I have space for. The Gloriosa is a summer grower and these should be stored cool and dry until spring. The ginger should be planted immediately. You'll receive several pieces of root...

I just harvested a whole bunch of Devil's Claw seed pods and have a bunch of extra seed now, I've promised some out already but I don't see why I shouldn't be able to come up with packs for at least 2 more people. Shipping is on me, but could anyone recommend the best way to go about that...

Spring is here, I'm getting lots of new growth and the sarras are sending up flowers so I'm trying to pollinate them. In the process of doing so the cotton bud I was using to pick up the pollen managed to get some kind of clear jelly on it. Apart from being clear it was very thick, but not...

Well I grow two different types of passion flower. Passiflora incarnata and p. Caerulea. The p. Caerulea does ever flower, but produces beautiful foliage so I don't mind. My p. Incarnata is at the end of its first year of growth and had a flower, now is producing a fruit with , I hope, viable...

Hey guys, Long time no see! So, I had originally planned to pull my VFTs out of my terrarium for their dormancy, but (and please correct me if I'm wrong) They seem to be starting their dormancy already. I'll post pics of the plant that is furthest along in what I think it's doing, later. I'll...

In May of 2007 I had major cervical spine surgery. During my recovery my having a few sundews among the orchids to control fungus gnats developed into a full fledged interest in CPs. As a get well gift my family put in a half whiskey barrel bog where I could sit on the front porch and watch...

Hey all, There was some interest earlier this year in my experience growing D. Arcturi. I live in a warm city with 30*c summer days but successfully grow both mature plants and seedlings of alpine sundew, including Arcturi. For my mature plants, this is their third season. The seedlings are...

I am offering this sarracenia division. It came to me labeled only as "sarracenia species" so I really have no clue what it is. It did flower this spring (pics included below) and the division you are getting ships with whatever flower stalks are attached. I never bagged or Covered the flowers...

This is really overkill, but since I already have the photos, as well as tons propagated... I'm looking for some of the very red sphagnum moss. I'm giving my mom a new Nepenthes and I wanted to have some for that new plant, as well as her existing Nepenthes. Red is her favorite color, and she...

Pinguicula gigantea leaf pulls. The green ones on the left. Few months old now. The one up front is the largest, and the one the winner will receive. This clone has been vigorous in my conditions. Pinguicula 'Aphrodite' mature division. Flowers for me in late fall and early spring. Does...

I have had this N. ventricosa (arist x thorelli) for a long time now, about 7-8 months. I originally got it from Paul as a generous gift, and when I first got it, it was green like its sibling. However during acclimation it soon turned cherry red, and I thought it was just horrible sunburn, as...

In a never-ending quest to make more room in my GH for my CP collection, I'm starting to pare down extras and less desirable (to me, at least) non-CP: 1. Gasteria fuscopunctata - a large plant with lots of babies. Originally from the University of South Florida Botanical Garden in Tampa...
