    Passiflora (Passionflower, Passionfruit) Thread

    I noticed that there was a Passiflora thread on Terraforums, but many years ago. I thought it was time to start a new one. Although pictures of flowers can be flashy, I want to encourage people to post picture, comments, questions about whatever... Fruits, leaves (some species are grown...

    Nep ID

    Hey guys. I got this plant a couple of months ago as a freebie in an order from a BE retailer. It was labeled N x 'Rokko'. I am familiar with Nepenthes 'Rokko', and in my opinion this plant looks nothing like it. Overall, the plant is very small, and produces lovely little pitchers. As they are...

    Pest ID with Microscope

    So I noticed on two of my nepenthes that the growth tips and new leaves seem to have these bubbles on them. A closer look revealed these small white bugs, and I somehow got one under a microscope for an ID. Does this look familiar to any of you? They are extremely tiny. Thanks

    You are bidding on 1 packet of Drosera burmannii seeds from plants with location data of Humpty Doo, NT, Australia. This is my favorite form of my favorite carnivorous plant. If you feed it regularly (and it has an enormous appetite) it will grow remarkably quickly after germination (and...

    N. fusca "flared peristome"

    I received a N. fusca "flared peristome" around 2 and a half months ago, and I've noticed that it's been growing pretty slowly (for a N. fusca). So far, it has only put out one tiny pitcher and two new leaves. Does anyone else have experience with this plant being sluggish? (I believe the form...

    Cephalotus Development

    I have a Cephalotus plant that is ~5 years of age. It is really healthy, produces at least one new pitcher every other month, and it is growing. It is still tiny though, and I know these plants are supposed to be slow to develop. How long should it take a healthy Cephalotus plant to reach its...

    Petunia exserta: Bugs stick, red flowers, nearly extinct, indoor/outdoor, free seeds

    Petunia exserta would seem to have a lot going for it: 1) It's nearly extinct in the wild. 2) It has red flowers--the only naturally occurring ones in its genus. 3) It's hummingbird pollinated--also the only one in it's genus. 4) Bugs stick to the leaves--it's not carnivorous, but at least...

    Lowii x boschiana

    Figured that I would post a few pics of a new pitcher. This plant had an odd sudden die back and was left with a tiny basal about three years ago. Now it is settled in nicely and I can't wait for it to reach uppers as the pitchers are gaining more hairs under the lid and the mouth is starting to...

    brand new fly trap(s)

    I'm not very familiar with Dionea, since I'm used to just growing Drosera. Got this tiny group of Akai Ryu vfts in the mail just over a week ago, and I've had it in the window, just going with the natural cycle of the sun for its Winter dormancy. The temperature in this terrarium has been...

    Begonias from seed: Begonia dregei

    I thought it would be useful to start a thread about growing Begonias from seed, and Begonia dregei, in particular, for a couple reasons. Begonia seeds are tiny, and I think a lot of people assume they are near impossible to grow successfully. Begonia dregei is a really fun Begonia, and one of...

    Looking for Nepenthes bicalcarata. Trade for Dracula vampira and/or other non Cps

    Are these gemmae?

    Late last spring, I ordered some Utricularia sandersonii. Needless to say, there were other species received in addition to the U. sandersonii, primarily U. bisquamata. However, there was also a tiny little Drosera growing as a hitchhiker as well. Until today, I had considered it to just be...

    Anyone grow Petrocosmeas (Gesneriads)?

    I bought a few Petrocosmeas recently. They are relatives of African Violets, except they are cool-growing for the most part, coming from the mountains of Southern China and Southeast Asia. I was particularly in intrigued by the amazing rosettes of those I saw in the cool house at the SF...

    I have a Begonia luxurians plant which is about 12 feet tall and produces tons of seeds. So I have more seeds than I can easily deal with. I gave a huge number to the American Begonia Society Seed fund. These are mainly seeds that were harvested after that point. Here's the deal. Since...
