Everything is still asleep here in the PNW, but a few have nice pitchers carried over from last year.

The bog before the haircut:

Clearing it out already? I was just thinking the other day I'll probably want to get that done in a couple weeks.

I thought I would take advantage of the break in the weather the last few days since I have so many to do. Who knows when we will get more dry days around here the way it has been going, haha.

Friend, here in Brazil serious problems with dengue diseases. These bowls I wanted to find here and buy, in it let live fish that eat dengue larva.

Congratulations on your cultivation.

I was gone, I lost my dream as a droso, but one day maybe I can.

Big hug

Thank you. Mosquitoes are a problem here also, but fortunately dengue rarely occurs in the US. I use Mosquito Dunks in all my trays (containing a bacteria toxic to the larvae), but “mosquito” fish do a good job also in deeper water and I have them in my water garden barrels for that purpose.

Sorry to hear of your Drosophyllum losses. I hope you keep trying though.
