Great job Craig. You're a superb grower!

Thanks for all the comments!
Most of it has to do with starting with good stock, not necessarily my growing prowess!

 

[philcula]

I'm not so sure Craig. I've known other growers with excellent material to start with that couldn't grow their way out of a paper bag. It does indeed take talent to grow them the way you have, but having good stock/healthy stock to start with doesn't hurt either! It's always nice to see what you can do with your plants.

I am humbled by your praise!

Indeed you have some quite happy plants. I have never received divisions that didnt go through some sort of shipping shock but yours didnt even flinch when I received them!
Whatever you're doing Craig dont stop!
It's a real treat/pleasure to have growers like you and Phil around here. Thanks for sharing

You just called my collection enviable... far from it! I have a leuco but it's the least impressive plant I own until late fall, when it throws up 1 impressive pitcher and then goes into dormancy.

I absolutely love all your plants... those Neps are wonderfully delightful. I sound stupid

Thanks for the kind words French! The reason they didn't flinch was because you were sent divisions of mature plants rather than little tiny offshoots you get sometimes from people when they tell you it is a division!
