    Some sad plants

    First up: small jamban(?) seedling. Germinated in March with the others, but this one is super tiny and not very happy with me. I think it's enjoying the colder weather more than this summer though. It's pale yellowish green (the black are old pitchers I can't cut off yet cuz it's too small...

    Haunted Sarracenias

    Several of the local Masonic lodges are collaborating and putting on a Halloween party with a haunted house. A couple years ago Dory's lodge was in charge of the HH, and I stole a corner and filled it with Sarrs and the super N. ventrata. This year it's another lodge doing it, but I got asked to...

    Hellooo from California!

    Being sociophobic, I felt that I need to take up a hobby... so, here I am! Please guide me. :) I'm a super noob at CP plants and just started about 2 months ago because my puppy's crap (literally) keeps bringing all types of flies into my backyard and eventually those flies brought everyone and...

    Light windows for CPBobby

    I'm up rather late (or super early now), and I spotted an unanswered question in the chat box by CPBobby about light windows. Here is a quick grab off my mobile Photobucket, showing a Sarracenia leucophylla x minor cross. Both of these species have light windows, AKA fenestrations, as do S...

    Thinking of changing photo hosting services. Any suggestions?

    I really hate photobucket! :-D Super ugly UI and it does not feel worth my time anymore. I'll leave most of my photos up there, but I won't be adding any more. I really want to have more of an online "Gallery" peeps can look thru. Preferably password protected? I know photobucket can do that...

    Update on my NASC auction plants/and monster pinguicula.

    Hi, I wanted to post pictures of the plants I won in the latest NASC auction. They are all growing fabulously. I won a Drosera esmeraldae which has gotten much bigger.http://i281.photobucket.com/albums/kk231/mattbyers/recent/esmereldae.jpg I got a group of bladderworts, includeing warburgii and...

    Lowland Paludarium?

    Okay, so I had an idea that would be pretty cheap and it would make a pretty piece for my room. Basically what it would be is a 10 gallon fish tank paludarium. It would have a mound of sphagnum going around on all sides and a big puddle in the middle. The puddle would go about 1/3 of the way up...

    Pics of my not so secret garden...

    Luca wanted to see pics of my overcrowded setup, so I figured I would post them for all to see... Top shelf, has some airplants which are not doing super well... Also some nice big bromeliads in the back... Most of the stuff is in bags, because I don't have a humidifier yet. I should get one...

    Sifton Bog in London, Ontario

    This past weekend I visited the Sifton Bog in London, Ontario. I want to thank Peatmoss for guiding me there, because it is an AMAZING bog! Here are the pictures: Large Intermedia Population under some brush in the bog: Purps (They were few, but the ones that were there...

    first raffesaina var elongata pitcher

    This plant seems happiest of all and is growing super fast. I didn't expect the first pitcher to be this large and this articulated.

    Transplanting with Superthrive

    I have a few seedling coming in the mail (sarracenia) and was wondering at what dosage would you dilute the super thrive to dip the roots in for a successful transplant?

    Redux! {Large Pic}

    Hello! I've been playing with my new camera a lot, and I decided I will re-do a few of my pics. . . Starting with this one! My new camera is a Nikon D7000. I'm super happy to have it now, as I have been saving for almost a year. The lens used was a Nikon 60mm AF-S Micro. #1 - I think this...

    Suprise at the local orchid/suculent shop! :D

    Yesterday, I went inside to have a look around. The place mostly sells orchids, succulents, overprices bonsai, bromelaids etc. I was looking around and found a tray full of a few vft's, some sundews, and nepenthes. Some of the vft's looked dead, some were healthy, the sundews were all dead, and...

    New Mexican Fire Knee Tarantula

    Finally got the spider of my dreams! She (hopefully) is about 4 inches across, I think I'm going to name her Roxy:-O:-O:-O Beautiful, super bright orange joints and ridiculously calm, just the way a good spider should be! Pictures soon to come! :spidersmile:

    How to Keep Sphagnum Moist?

    I feel like I'm over-watering my Nepenthes because I have to mist the sphagnum so much. I never have to pour water into the pot because its always wet. The sphagnum dries out daily unless you keep it wet. In some pots its growing 1" or 3" above the soil line, so it can't draw water up that much...

    Capensis and spatulata tips!?

    Hi! I just ordered some spatulata Fraiser island and capensis typical and they will come in next week. I have everything set up already. I have a t5 and t8 fixture around 8 inches high with foil wrapped around it. It hurts my eyes to look at it! I also have a thermometer/hygrometer in there and...

    Hello from the San Francisco Bay Area!

    Hi guys! I got into carnivorous plants about 5 years ago thanks to a friend, and since then I've expanded my collection to over 70 plants and counting (not including seedlings). I'm really happy to have found this forum, it's super awesome! I am luckily able to grow many species outside thanks...
