I feel like I'm spamming the web with this thread, but what the heck... may as well post it on three different forums.
Pics of my healthier 'dews at the moment. I edited some of the pics to make the colour look like it does in real life, because my new camera doesn't always capture the right...
Beyond Beginner's Information: Insider's Insight
This was originally written for my friend whose interest is piqued in Carnivorous Plants. I've worked very hard on this, but I don't doubt that perhaps I've forgotten anything meaningful or gotten something wrong. Please correct, or add other...

Seed for SASE - D. intermedia (Mnt Roraima), Capensis "Alba", Capensis "narrow leaf"
I just cut the stalks from both of these plants today and harvested the seed. Edit: JUST ADDED - Capensis "Narrow Leaf" if anyone wants any
One condition on the Mnt Roraima seed, must be a GREEN MEMBER. I...
I got this unlabeled... it sorta looks like leuco x minor... if it actually is I'll be super stoked! It's finally making pitchers that look recognizable as an adult plant instead of the nondescript pitchers from last year :boogie:
Just opened yesterday so I guess I get to wait and see...
Hi everyone!
Up for trade I have an AW N. hamata (Clone 1).
It's about 2" across, and has put out new growth in my care, however it hasn't pitchered since I received it in late July. I think my conditions are a bit too hot right now for it, and I honestly don't want hamata as much as I thought I...
So I tried my best to get some good macros of my cape 'alba'.. Its totally clear dew and tentacle bits make it super hard to focus on.. but I think i got a few that are passable..
In the shade..
In full sun
Compared to my (now identified) "Broadleaf" cape
I'm looking for species that don't get too big or at least do not vine out of control.
Conditions are around 70-80F during the day and drop a bit at night then. Not really strict HL or LL I guess? My ventricosa does well if that helps give an idea.
Anyways, I don't have much space at the...
I picked up a pot of cobra seedlings from Kristoff the other day and just got around to planting em in my cobra bowl... The 2 at the top are new, as are 2 teeny tiny babies below the biggest plant. Hoping the medium sized plant off to the left survives, it really suffered when I got super busy...
For some reason three of my sarracenias have decided to flower in midsummer: S. alata, 'W.C.' and 'Super Green Giant.' The blooms opened within three days of each other and I saw at least two interesting potential hybrids among them. I made the crosses this afternoon but now I'm wondering do...
Doh, forgot to just add this to my last post. lol. My adelae has 2 flower stalks, and the first two flowers just opened today. Wooo! My adelae has always been my "happiest" looking dew, super bushy and covered in thick dew all the time.. And it was the first of my dews to send up flowers... the...

Pictures used to be included before photobucket went rogue and screwed me over with watermarks... RIP
Please excuse the extra information I add in here... it helps with my documentation incase it is ever required.

N. Flava North Sumatra SG (hybrid?)...
I bought this flytrap from a local nursery, the first one I've kept since the one I got (and promptly killed) as a kid. It was mixed in with a bunch of hybrid pitcher plants and being kept in the shadiest part of the nursery (north wall, no direct sun at all), so as you can guess, all the plants...
Hi everyone,
I've been looking at chameleons lately, and am super duper in love with pygmy leaf chameleons.
I've seen all of these websites selling them, however, I'm wondering if any are reputable.
Does anyone have any experience with receiving reptiles in the mail (overnight shipping)?
Online...
After many loans taken out from my parents, I have finally finished my terrarium, short of a mini fan. I'm super proud so don't be too harsh with the inevitable criticisms! ^^

Upcoming N.Truncata QoH x KoS pitcher, looking like it's going to be nicely bigger...
I've got an unrooted cutting of N. 'Whisper' (Striped) for trade. If it roots before it trades, I'll have to reconsider what I'm looking for.. or if I even want to let it go. It's been in the rooting tank for 2 days and is still looking good. Cutting was taken by me from my own plant.
It is...
Starting with some photos I took this morning before I went to work.. Sun was just coming up over the top of my building.. Photos are best viewed at full size :)

You may have seen these guys on thinkgeek as the mini pet cactus. I bought one two years ago, and she was great! I named her fluffy, wore her around my neck, and brought her everywhere with me...
But alas, life is such a fragile thing, and before I knew it, the love of my life had been wrenched...
