    Flora's little list

    So I don't have a lot, but i'm super proud of my plants. I talk to them and tell them they are doing good. They seem to like it. Here it is: Outdoor: I have four S. purpureas, a couple i lost the tags for, so at this point i call them all purpureas. I have a S. Red throat, a couple Luecophylla...

    SoAm Dew seeds

    Hi TF - I've got some seed of a few South American Drosera. I've never grow this group before, but plan on doing so in my highland room. Generally their culture seems straight forward and I'm not super concerned about their germination - except... I've read some strong preferences for media...

    Drosera graomgolensis

    Got this one in June or July. Grew steady but not super well. I also brought it along on a cross country relocation in August, and it did fine. It's durability is proven. Now it's starting to grow much better, despite a decreased photoperiod under my growlights. I suspect the cool weather has...

    Cross Pollination Took!

    I tried cross pollinating some pings for the first time and it worked! Two out of the three flowers I pollinated are developing seed. The seeds will have the following parentage: Pinguicula ['Aphrodite' (agnata x moctezumae) x (laueana (CP2) x emarginata)-Vic's Clone] My iPhone wouldn't let me...

    Just for Whimgrinder (and others really)

    I know you are always chasing down folks using your imagery to sell plants, just like I'm chasing down people bootlegging my label's releaes releases or giving away downloads or using my art on their commercial products without paying me. I received this today from ASCAP Daily Breifing (The...

    Super easy DIY LED: Philips XF-3535L

    I just posted a step-by-step assembly of super easy DIY LED, which I have done about a year ago. 1 year is a long time in the progress of LED technology, but Philips XF-3535L is still great in terms of efficiency. The price came down a little bit over the year, but COB (chip-on-board) LEDs...

    Guide me through my container bog

    Hey folks. After doing lots of reading I've decided to try my hand first at an outdoor container bog. As I've mentioned in previous posts I'm in Texas, zone 9, near Houston. I plan to do mostly sarracenia with a couple VFT, sundews, bladderwort, and even a cobra lily if one would survive for...

    BPB's 90 gallon reef

    Dionaea Seed Giveaway

    I have 1 packet of at least 100 (probably many more) Dionaea muscipula seeds to giveaway. I believe these are from the 'Gremlin' cultivar. The plants are on the larger side of average but are super cold hardy and clump vigorously. They don't get very much red in the traps but more than make up...

    How do i transition a terrarium pitcher to being outside?

    Honestly, when I first got this pitcher, it sat outdoors for 3 months perfectly fine and was making pitchers. I prob should've just let it be without throwing it in a terrarium. This plant is growing super fast and I want to take it out without killing it. How do i do this? This is a...

    Pilularia globulifera ( The Pillwort)

    OK here's Fred with another wort. I have a couple of quarter trays with this fern in and can see immediately that it is super easy to identify in the wild. That's once you've knelt down on mud and decided that the mass of green growth isn't grass or reed and your high power loupe hasn't steamed...

    Fresh Nepenthes hybrid seeds.

    I am giving away two - possibly three pods of seeds collected yesterday of my cross of N. Helen X N. spectabilis. Nepenthes Helen is a Borneo Exotics single select clone from their cross of N. spathulata X N. spectabilis "giant". The N. spectabilis is a seed-grown plant that came from Leilani...

    UV laser pointer

    Super, major, geeky, nerdy spazz. :spazz: :spazz: I just got a cheap blue-violet laser pointer today (they come in violet?!? What rock was I living under?), and I've been playing with it all evening. I just discovered that it's really a black light, and it excites all my UV reactive stuff. Take...

    Free grape hyacinth bulbs

    I have a bunch of super healthy and productive clumps of grape hyacinths. They are very easy to grow, nice grasslike foliage with deep blue flowers, great for edging, pots, or inter planting with tulips, hyacinths etc, overwinter in the snow easily and are one of the first bulbs to flower when...

    D. spatulata relatives and flower color

    I have what was sent to me as D. x tokaiensis and D. spatulata "Fraser Island" and I'm worried I got them mixed up label-wise since they're super similar. However, both are flowering now and from what I've gathered the first is generally pink while the latter is white. Is that consistently true...

    A well fed Heli is a happy heli, thanks to Maiden

    Well, I followed Maiden's instruction on dust feeding the Heli and man it paid off. http://www.carnivorousplants.org/howto/Feeding/FeedingDBWSBS.php Look at the difference in size between the old and new pitchers. The newest pitcher was also really sneaky, i went to bed last night and it...
