Oh, and here is the mother ship (primuliflora) and a very unhappily repotted venusta. It's about an 8" deep pot so hopefully venusta will bulk up this year. I have about a dozen or more primuliflora plantlets started for pot fillers with some of the brighter Drosera pots.
Nice looking setup!
(you probably know this by now, but the VFT's and Sarracenia shouldnt be spending the winter there, its not good for them.)
One winter probably wont harm them..but get them outside in the Spring, and make sure
they dont spend next winter in the greenhouse!
For sure Scot. I got them about a month or so ago and they were heavily dormant like they had been that way some time. They were sold in bags of dried peat like bulbs. I figures they had their rest, and we're going for the long year this year. We'll see how it works out. They were discounted heavily lol! Thanks for the comments
Great stuff SB. I just got a greenhouse like that from a local discount grocery store for $20. It is living outdoors. I can't wait till it is overflowing like yours. I
I love the before and after pics of the cuttings. I think my favorite part of CPs, is the reproduction part. I like making MORE!
Thanks Oregoncp! It sure doesn't take long to propagate a full growing area, and a hobby you can trade off or donate your excess materials makes it all worth while. Thanks for looking!
P.S. I confess that the strikes and seedling pics are from a different growing area I have set up as a nursery. I've just kind of adopted this thread as my pic thread for now.
Here's U. sandersonii and a little freebie Drosera whatisit hiding in there
This little assortment contains: D. capensis, aliciae, spatulata, spatulata 'Tamlin', communis (I believe), and madagascariensis, and that might be spat fraser island next to the madagascariensis.
Here we've got: D. capensis x spatulata, spiralis, aliciae, and hamiltonii.
I see you have a few still lurking around at liest Pine. It's always a bummer watching things decline. I admit I have had my fair share of casualties and set-backs along the way and have been fortunate to still have many species that I nearly lost entirely. Hopefully it will be mostly smooth sailing for a while and I can grow a few plants that rival the sweet stuff the "local" pro-photographers have been shooting.
