That's me on the right with the guest who won the raffle plant at my "Monstrosities of Mother Nature" presentation. The picture looks like an illusion, she won a small VFT but it looks like she's holding a pot of S. flava. We had those S. leuco buttons for sale with the caption, "My Plants Consume Me."

I must ask- WHO is responsible for that monstrousity that is that "Bog Bucket" in the last 2 pics (with the Nep, S.purpurea, VFTs, Cephs and a few trumpets)???
IS that a permanent thing, or was it smacked together for the show?? MOST impressive, either way, really sorry that I can't attend these things, darnit

Thanks for the complements Mabudon. The bog bucket is mine and it's a great thing to bring when I give talks. It's been together for a little over a year, and the bits of live LFS I'd originally chopped and sprinkled all over finally grew and covered it. The Ceph really likes the deep pot. In the very back I have a cranberry plant and we've gotten a few cranberries.

A few plants are not real happy - with it being outside and all. I strategically placed it on our deck so part would get more sun and part would be more in dappled shade. I had a very nice D. prolifera in there but squirrels destroyed it last spring. There was a nice D. capensis in there, but recent cold weather just before the show wiped it out. I have a Nepenthes (clip x vent) x (clip x vent) and I'd wanted to have the pitchers hang over the side - but, it just keeps getting smaller and smaller. Also, in the back I have a D. binata that sorta comes & goes.

Here are some of the plants in it:

S. leuco
S. Dana's Delight
S. purp
S.purp seedling
VFT
VFT dentate
VFT seedling
VFT Red Dragon
Ping moranensis
D. binata
S. alata
S. flava
Bog cranberry
D. rotundifolia
D. nitidula
Cephalotus

Right now I'm debating whether to take it apart and put some things into dormancy, or bring it in for another winter and grow the whole thing under lights.
