trichomes

Hi everybody! I share with you some pictures of a mystery plant that grows naturally in my garden (as a weed). Viscosity of the substance produced by trichomes is far more efficient than with droseras. I'd like to identify it (at least the family name) Is it, according to you, a...

This thread is in no way intended to be an endorsement of illegal marijuana use. Indeed, one could infer from this discussion that consumption of trichome resin is harmful. One internet writer showed photos of cannabis trichomes, claiming: "There is no other plant like this in nature". I...

Hello everyone, Here is another call to correct your plant labels! :) A few colleagues and I have just published a 35-page review of the D. montana complex. Like our previous publications on Brazilian sundews, this paper has been decades in the making and it has definitely been the most...

I've got a mystery sundew here. It was grown from what was supposed to be D. roramiae seed but obviously this is something else. It appears d. capensis like but the stipules, somewhat tapered end of leaf shape, long white trichomes on the margins of the petioles, and rate of growth make me think...

I was intrigued by the temperate species when I saw them in Western Australia a few years ago and tried growing them. However, the tropical heat sent them straight into summer dormancy...they never woke up and rotted away. :-( So I got myself some seeds of the tropical species. The first...

Hey there! I have some Stylidium debile offshoots which will be ready to ship in a week or so (if I have shipping $$$ then) I can send 1 or 2 to you if you wish. Check out my wantlist for trades. A.k.a the Triggerplant. My debiles have somewhat hairy trichomes with a little stickyness on them...

The Peruvian Andes gave the world the potato, which is one of the largest crops in the world today. The problem is, the modern potato is plagued by potato beetles and aphids, which also carry some viral diseases to the plant. Now a wild potato found in the Bolivian Andes is being studied because...

Hi everyone I purchased a nice staghorn fern about two months ago. About a week or so ago I noticed there was some decay along a few creases in several of the leaves. This has slowly grown so that each spot is about an inch long and 1/4" wide - the inside is white, while the border between the...
