amphirion's picture thread...

I can't wait to see the results of your hairy hamata. I wish I'd jumped on this species myself.

Everything else is looking awesome! :)

Love the colour! Do you mind sharing how are you growing those petiolaris 'dews? Mine are struggling.

very warm conditions. 105-110F during the day. 85 F at night. the tank is very high in humidity---plants eat springtails within the tank. i try feeding them betta pellets but those result in mold. i would not allow the temps to drop below 70F for prolonged periods of time as this may result in either a dormant state or death. if the plants do fall into dormancy, keep the plants out of water and only water sparingly every other week. temps should be kept as warm as possible. (refer to my pics of broomensis) once when you see leaves elongating and producing traps, you know that your plants have successfully made it out through dormancy.

best of luck growing devon!
 
Oh man, you have so many up-and-comers! :laaa:

I absolutely adore your black faded to gray background on some of those shots... I hope you don't mind me trying to replicate it! ^.^
 
Everything looks great amphirion. I really like the petiolaris sundews, especially the D. dilatatopetiolaris, it's one of my favourites. :)
I can't wait to see everything in the spring, it should be a real show!
 
@dex: used to play a lot with my roommates. :)
@vraev: thanks so much sir! hope all is well with you? are you able to recover your collection?
