tuber

I just recieved a tuber of D. whittakeri ssp. whittakeri and was wondering: 1) Should I go ahead and pot it up in its media or wait til fall for cooler temps? 2) I have heard these need a nightly temp drop but have also read of them being kept in constant 70-80F temps. Whats the scoop? 3)...

weel, I read Pyro's sticky but don't get it'Once the plant starts to die back you should hold off watering. I usually let the tray dry like normal then do the once a week minimal watering thing for a max of two weeks then I pull the pot and put it in a protected area out of the sun. This is...

Here is pot that contains a D. gigantea tuber, I thought the moss was very aesthetically pleasing so I added a miniature white picket fence. wait until new growth emerges :boogie:

I got a tuber of a mature location data tuberous sundew. Drosera menziesii ssp. basifolia Wongan Hills, WA It is my first tuberous drosera, any idea on how to store the tubers and how wet they like their soil. Also does it need full sun, can I grow it outside in zone 8 or should I put in in...

So you may recall that around the start of the year my heater went out in the sunroom and my stolonifera got frozen to death. Or so I thought. Last night as I was getting ready to dump the pot in favor of using it for some newly acquired tubers I noticed this: Seems that this one plant was...

I recently bought a bulb of this plant and since it arrived, I've had it lying around waiting for growth to start. I'm having a tough time finding specific cultivation info on it other than its really easy so my questions are: 1.) What soil should I use? 2.) How deep should the tuber be...

Well I sowed some peltata 3 months ago according to what I wrote on the pot;I have no idea what I'm doing wrong ??? I resowed the pot with some more seed a month ago nothing....... Have any ideas ? EDIT Okay well I am going to have to wait longer. Unless someone wants to get rid of a small...

I'm looking for both of these species in plant and or tuber form as opposed to seed. I have lots of mex. pings for trade. Pm me with your email address and I will forward my list. Thanks, Birdman Dan S.E. Wisconsin

I just got a drosera tuber in the mail and I didn't want to pot it until the fall since it will stay in tuber form until then anyways.. so what would be the best way to store it? Just keeping it in a dry baggy at room temperature? Thanks.

Thought I'd add some of my own after all the ones I have seen recently D. macrantha. 3rd year from seed D. ramellosa. 2nd year from seed D. stolonifera. This was actually my first tuberous. I started with a tuber about the size of a BB. The tubers for these guys this year were just...

So since I am sending out a bunch of tubers a few of you have requested that I maybe make it known what I do so that people can have some info rather than have to hit the ground running. I guess you all like to hear me ramble on Most of what I am sending out is good beginner material because...

A couple year ago I mounted a U. endressii on a piece of cork that had been laying around. I don't remember when the ferns started growing but I figure its been a little over a year now that they started showing up. Can anyone ID my spontaneous ferns? U. endressii tuber (the endressii...

Hello, Some of my D.peltata seed recently germinated. The seedlings are ~3 months old (and are growing nicely) and the pot is sitting in water under good lighting/air circulation. After reading the old posts on this species, I have a few questions please: 1. Should the pot be sitting in water...

Seems like forever since I've bought a Nep but feeling good about resetting up my sculpting/illustration studio this weekend I took a trip to Wistubas website and blew a load! So I'm getting the following and I'd like any growing experience you highlander folks have with these: N. lamii N...

Two cases to prove that these plants are just nuts overall. 1) Three years ago I sowed out seed for D. ramellosa. Nothing happened, nothing happend, nothing happened. This morning I was going to throw out the pot and move something new into it and what do I find?? 8 sprouts!!. This pot has been...

Well i am excited to say that my amorphophallus konjac with a tuber of 7 inches diameter is going to flower for the first time ever. As of 2 weeks ago i just happened to look at the tuber and i thought to myself, Is it just me or did this shoot up a little. First it was almost unnoticeable but...

Hi Last winter a number of my D. whittakeri started to look sickly. These plants eventually rotted and died.   I waited until my two remaining plants were completely dormant and repotted them in fresh compost. The 4 tubers I got out of the pots looked healthy. Now one of the 4 plants has just...

I have a tuber of Amorphophallus titanum available for anyone that wants to bid for it. This is the big stinky flower that makes the news every time it flowers in some botanical garden. They usually sell in the hundreds of dollars and I believe they are quite rare in cultivation in the US (and...
