Hello again from DE!

[EdaxFlamma]

Hello all,

I used to frequent the forums a few years back before my college days. It's been a while though and my collection is now non-existent so I am back to square one it seems. Hope to see some new faces, catch up with the old, and begin rebuilding my Nep and utric. collections.

Cheers!
-J.P.

Thanks everyone!

@Jim There's a familiar face! Glad to see you are still around the forums and hope all is well!

The collection has been declining since a peak in 2010, but generous forum folk have been helping me rebuild.

 

[EdaxFlamma]

I hear ya. I sent my collection back home to my family after my second year at college with detailed instructions. Between infrequent waterings and tap water I lost the entirety of my collection after the first year. Didn't even want to think about it for the longest time but I'm slowly working myself back.

Family + Instructions = Disaster

 

[NatchGreyes]

Agreed, Jim. My collection suffered the same fate.

I agree, too. After going to college all of my CPs died except a Nepenthes alata, which actually did fine surprisingly. Granted, I wasn't as interested in them as much as I had been or I am now.
