For my birthday a I got a D. aliciae and a D. capillaris x rotundifolia "Pasco Giant" hybrid. The "Pasco Giant" is an "evergrow" hybrid that doesn't require dormancy. I've placed these in an old 5 gallon fish tank with 30 watts of fluorescent lighting over them. They appear to be thriving now...

Check it out my Stapelia schinzii var. angolensis has flowered today! It doesn't stink taht bad I had to put my nose right over it to detect any smell. I'm always hoping for a true stink pot and am always dissapointed when my "bad smelling" plants bloom and it's nothing as bad as my socks at...
Hi all ,
I would like to share you my plants in my nursery. This Year I would like to introduce in expensive small division, cutting and tissue culture.
Here is my growlist.
Plants and Description
- N. x Kuchingensis ‘Songkhla’ . Green pitchers. May turn red or purple unpredictably. Wild...
I recently visited the Arboretum at the National Mall. It had an absolutely spectacular collection of plants, most in great shape.
Unfortunately, I managed to find only 3 CPs in the entire collection--a VFT, S.purpurea, and unidentified nepenthes with every single pitcher dead. It would be...

I posted these in the nep forum but it keeps getting buried and no one is replying.
Here are the pics of the whole plants.
First, the first plant showing the leaf...

The second plant as seen from the top...
And the whole leaf and pitcher. it...
I've never taken photos of my pygmy drosera, so I thought I'd do them all at once today. They live outdoors year round on my deck. I got almost all of these as gemmae from Tamlin, jeez, almost 2 years ago now. All of them have lived, in various rates of success, through some abuse. Oh, and some...
i know i sent 2 or 3 ppl a Utric labeled U. Unkown or U. unidentified or something along those lines, anyways it bloomed for me this week and it is a white flowered form of U. nephrophylla
Hi everybody,
Knowing how nectar glands - and how they are scattered on the lid underside surface - are one of the ways to identify Nepenthes species, I tried to see the glands of N. smilesii (clone from Phu Kradung) and N. viking (clone from Ao Panga) with my microscope. I wanted to make a...
i was looking over my plants last night and there was a splash of color where there shouldnt be, my U. aureomaculata bloomed!! unfortunatly no digi cam yet but ill snap a few shots with my 35mm so ill have a picture to post next week.

Okay, I have a few VFTs and a pot of an as yet unidentified Sarracenia which I have been fixing to put outsied in my little inground bogs so that nature can take care of them for me from now on....
thing is, my outdoor bogs are all 50/50 peat-sand and these are potted in LFS...
My question is...
I sure enjoy Dionaea muscipula, they can really look nice. I like keeping them in little 2" square pots floating in water, reduces the problem of what to do with old leaves, they just rot away. Now if I could only keep the mites away permanently.
Dionaea:
Dionaea muscipula "typical"
Dionaea muscipula "red dragon"
Dionaea muscipula "dente"
Dionaea muscipula "big mouth"
Dionaea muscipula "giant" from best CP's
Drosera:
D. admirabilis
D. aliciae
D. adelae
D. capensis "narrow"
D. x "marston...
Here is what Pinguicula growing like weeds looks like.
Story:
1) I had several clones (species, hybrids, and cultivars) of Pinguicula that I had already created several small plantlets of by leaf pullings. I used some of these small plants to pull off many smaller leaves for propagation. I...
I took some pictures of the unidentified Drosera from below in the post titled "Couple of CP Id's"
Here is the plant again, and I also included some pictures of the flowers it is currently producing. I thought it was a D. Spatulata at first, but now I'm not sure. The rosette is about 2.5 to 3...
CONFIRMED Darwin Award: DEATH BY LAVA LAMP
28 November 2004
Washington
We have a new Darwin winner, with the recent demise of a man
at the hands of his lava lamp. "Why on Earth he heated a lava lamp
on the stove, we don't know," said baffled police.
No drug or alcohol evidence was found...
I have some unidentified sarras (nothing rare) up for grabs for postage.
It should be evident what they are once they start pitchering. I will fill as many requests as possible so don't be bummed if you're too late. I will post when I'm out.
Trades will be accepted in lieu of postage.
