My plants!

I've been around the board for a little while now, but I haven't posted any pictures of my CPs to this point. I've mostly only kept temperate species, mostly Sarrs to this point, but I traded with another member here about a month ago and got some really cool Neotropical species. They're starting to show signs of growth, so I figured I'd post some pictures.

good looking plants.
What kind of drosera seeds are you germinating?
 
Thanks! So far, I have D. capensis, madagascariensis, venusta, spatulata, and indica germinating...still waiting for filiformis to show signs of life.
 
A nice blend there. All of your plants look good.
 
Nice little Helis and epiphytic Utrics.
 
those utrics are going to look pretty cool when they flower,you got some nice dew species too,look forward to seeing updates

Just a small update...

Second pitcher for me on the Heli

It was looking like it wanted more light, so I added an LED spotlight above it to hopefully color it up.

Growth progression on the Utrics

U. asplundii

Utric update! I got these a few weeks ago, and they've begun to explode with growth. Most of the new growths have started in the last two weeks.

U. endressii...I count three new growths

U. reniformis with at least six forming

Confused U. humboldtii...no growth out of the top of the pot

I made some changes to my bog, and I now have my temperate plants in a replica sugar kettle. The pictures look more like I'm growing in a pond, but it's only because we've gotten something close to 6" of rain this week. I'm going the natural route with this, so I'm allowing pine savanna species who volunteer themselves to stay and also spreading seeds of various native forbs to replicate a savanna as best as possible.




S. purpurea that I saved from a plastic cube



S. purpurea ssp. venosa var. burkii



Unknown Cyperaceae



S. psittacina



S. flava

Nice bog! The first Sarracenia purpurea looks very unique.

Nice spoonage!

Two years with no bog updates, so I think it's about time to post some!
