Oregon Trip July 2011

[kulamauiman]

Got to visit some CP natural habitats in Oregon.

First site in southern Oregon
Late snow melt water was high. Don't know if the plants had woken up to their fullest. Some Flowering in the D. anglica. Utricularia intermedia seen and it was flowering. There is a published trip report for this location if you look hard enough. A second utricularia species was reported to be there but i didn't see it. Did see remnants of snow drifts under the forested areas so looks like snow really started melting about a week or so before we got there. My wife and sister got eaten by mosquitos.

red tinge in the distance are D. anglica

Utricularia intermedia

next area we visited was near central Oregon

again high water and late summer may have reduced what i could see. no real evidence of plants except for small sprig of the other utricularia found in Oregon U. macrorhiza

Got to visit with 2 friends in Southern Oregon
indoor VFTS under 2 twisty compact florescent lights. good reflector. Heat did not seem to be an issue
i need to rethink some of my growing techniques.

sundews and heli under t5 lighting and i wish i could cut wood to make nice stands like this

Outside Growing Area: Maybe idea for Liz in battle against rabid tree rats

Hoollyyy cow that is indeed the most organized, well put together set up i've seen yet. How is heat not an issue with his lights so close to the plants?! *head explodes*

Awesome field shots too, jealous

Second Friend CP collection in Ashland Oregon

Got to see his TC set up. Working on getting a set up for us to teach this at the college. Seems like it would be a nice addition to standard plant propagation. If you look closely you can see what every one is

acclimatizing after being deflasked. Potted up bagged and held for a few days weeks until they start growing then open baggies slowly and get accustomed to lower humidity

Back Yard:

you might recognize some of these people
