There is a listing on eB*y right now for a selection of N. ventricosa the seller calls "Super Red", which I cannot find any references to on the Web. The seller doesn't give any meaningful info on the clone, its provenance, nor is there a photo of the pitchers. (apparently it doesn't have any at...

I got a few Sarracenias last year for my little tray garden. They did well then of course didn't look so good in winter. I'm not exactly sure what to do now. I know some need to be repotted.
The big one in the back with the brown parts is a rubra gulfensis and it's got grass growing out of...

Do any of you have opinions on super absorbent polymers to be used inside of CP soil mixtures? would these eventually break down into fertilizer over time and kill the plants? any ideas or experances are welcome!

Hey all. My name is Cameron, you can call me Cam if you want. Or King XD
I spend a lot of time looking after my animals. I keep reptiles, amphibians, and other vertebrates and invertebrates. I prefer to grow live plants in my tanks. I was looking for something good to plant in my very...
I'm freaking out...
Last week I found the cottony "growth" on my S. rubra and isolated the plant. Now I'm finding the little ***** on my N. ventricosa (pitchers only it seems), D. 'pretty rosette' (flower stalk) and the VFT (in and out of the traps). They've also since been isolated.
I'm super...

I hear people saying things like, "The upper pitchers on this should look super nice!" and I feel stupid not knowing what they mean. :jester:
I did some reading and apparently the theory is that upper pitchers are designed to catch flying bugs and lower pitchers are designed to catch crawling...

So I'm tired of everyone having super gorgeous plants, and wondering why mine are falling behind. Seems the only thing I'm missing (besides natural light) is some sort of fert.
I picked up a $7.00 bottle of Urea free orchid fert today.
