Brokken's Greenhouse

[Brokken]

sir, why are you making me repeatedly sound like a broken record?
beautiful plants!

i wouldnt worry to much about the mold/algae growing on the heli pitchers...happens to them in the wild too.

That's good to know Amph. Gives me a little peace of mind.

 

[Frilleon]

Amazing!

How effective is that solar fan blowing across the media like that? And! Where did you get the thing?

Thanks,
CJ

Nice set-up for the cobra plants.

 

[GregNY]

All are gorgeous as usual!

One of the true masters at work!

Hows the Sarr collection going??

CJ: It's not particularly powerful but it does seem to keep the surface of the media a few degrees cooler and in the greenhouse, every little bit helps.

Greg: They're doing fine. A little neglected as I did not clean them of old D. capensis this year so there's quite a bit of that and clover growing in the bogs. At this point it's too late in the year to do much about it, I'll be a little more diligent about it next year. At this time of year, they're looking a little crispy around the edges and not all that good-looking.

In Marin? You could just leave them outside. Highlanders would do fine in that environment.
