Hey everyone,
I've been trying to expand my VFT collection, with some trades and great generosity i've managed to get my hands on some guys that I thought I'd share with you guys...
last year I had a planter outside with my outdoor bogs that had 25 or so VFT's when it just so happened the squirrels decided oh... guess what vft bulbs taste delicious and they didnt just scatter but... ATE the entire planter... it was quite a terrible site to see a herd of squirrels mauling your lovely plants... eitherway... so here I am on the rebound... check out these new guys...
oh they wont stay inside I'm sure ( although doable ) I just need to manufacture a squirrel proof cage
...starting in the VERY back (ignoring the drosera) I have some pots labeled and unlabeled their all Justina Davis divisions I just took along with the traps hanging from the right side of the photo...
now in the front two rows... starting in the back row moving from right to left... you'll see...
"1955" ( Bob Z.'s original typical from 1955 ), Crested Petiole, B52, Petite Dragon, with Red Piranha's on the end,
in the front row from right to left we have... Jaws, Jaws X Petite Dragon, Cup Trap and last but not least Wacky Traps...
-------------------------------------
Now here we have a picture of my Justina Davis before I repotted and divided it up (quarter for reference ) this was taken give or take a week or two ago...
and here's an example of why your bigger VFT's should always big in 6'' or larger pots...
thats just a division there were roots at the 5'' mark, while my main division had roots well past the 6'' mark
Thanks for looking, I'll throw up better individual shots of the newer VFT's as soon as they get some good strong summer growth
