I'll take the little capensis, if nobody has called it.

Thanks much!

@The Griffin - the little dew is yours. I'm 99% positive it's a capensis like you say but I don't want to say so officially :p

@gill za - nope, I wasn't one of the lucky winners.

All PMs have been replied to, afrodisa, still haven't heard from you, buddy. Boxes will go out Tuesday once payments are in.
 
Can someone tell me what type of climate U. Graminifolia requires?

All PMs replied to. The first boxes will go out tomorrow, if I have your shipping payment and address by lights out tonight, that means you!

Still awaiting payment/info from Davyjones, Wire Man, and ieatflys

I'll ship Mon-Thur since I'm just a block away from the post office. Cutoff is Thursday because I don't wanna risk a box held over a weekend.

As always, if I've missed something, let me know.

@Aperture - disclaimer: YMMV.
Short story: equal parts peat and perlite, keep their feet wet in 1/4" of CP-friendly water, windowsill or growlights.

Long story: I've personally grown it in equal parts peat and perlite, equal parts peat and silica sand, pure peat, pure turface, live sphagnum moss, and dried long fiber sphagnum moss. That's all in 2 months starting from a 1 inch plug. U. gram is notoriously easy to grow. I put mine through quite a bit of abuse experimenting with water levels. Now I'm a little wiser and the tray is a LOT less stinkier with rot. Through it all, U. gram soldiered on and grew grew grew. Any size pot will do, no need for a terrarium. If you're the curious/adventurous sort, U. gram is a great subject to play with things like medium, humidity, lighting, epiphytic, terrestrial, aquatic, emergent, submergent, blah blah blah. The sky's the limit!

Essentially, it does what it must because it can...

First round of boxes went out today. Still got one plug of U. livida left. If no one claims it, I'm just gonna toss it to the last person I'm sending a box to.

Alrighty, offers now closed, thanks for participating, everybody. When they start multiplying, share them with others!

@ieatflys - sorry, the idea was to spread around utrics and you're already gettin a plug of livida, so it went to someone who didn't originally sign up for one.

Grood Growin, peoples

Box arrived today. All looked well and have been put into 4" square pots with 50-50 peat sand media.
Thanks for your generosity - hope to be able to carry on with the tradition in the future (if the birds don't get'um and I don't kill'em)

So what water level do you tend to keep your terrestrial utrics in now? I try to keep mine in about an inch of water but I keep the plants in smaller pots so the pot is usually 1/3 or 1/4 in water. Since I'm still pretty much a noob I treasure any advice/suggestion I can get :)
