I've got a magic window!
I made this list up for another thread of what I grow as windowsill plants. I was curious what plants others grow this way.
When I first started to grow CP's, I also thought you had to have high humidity. My first tank has water in the bottom of it all the time to keep the humidity up. The top only has about a 2 1/2" opening the length of the tank. I also have a Tropical Aire Humidifier to help circulate air and increase humidity.
After experimenting with different CP's and humidity requirements, the second tank I set up has less then half the top covered. That's it. It's mainly a propagation tank for Cephs.
Currently in that tank I grow the following:
Cephalotus follicularis
Drosera falconeri
Heliamphora heterodoxa x minor
This is what I grow at my magic window on a shelf or in open tanks. The average humidity is 35-40%
Cobra Lily
Drosera adelae
Drosera aliciae
Drosera ascendens
Drosera capensis 'Albino'
Drosera capensis "red"
Drosera capensis - Typical
Drosera cistiflora
Drosera hartmeyerorum
Drosera intermedia
Drosera madagascariensis (Botswana)
Drosera montana var. tomentosa
Drosera prolifera
Drosera regia "Big Easy"
Drosera schizandra
Drosera sessilifolia
Drosera spatulata
Pygmy - My others will most likely be moving to the windowsill soon to make room for more Petiolaris complex sundews.
Drosera nitidula ssp allantostigma
Tuberous
Drosera peltata
Dewy Pine
Nepenthes aristolochioides
Nepenthes bicalcarata
Nepenthes hamata (Borneo Exotics clone)
Nepenthes Marbled Dragon (N. maxima - dark x N. truncata) (Exotica hybrid)
Nepenthes rafflesiana
Nepenthes rajah
Nepenthes x Rokko clone A x Nepenthes hamata
Pinguicula 'Aphrodite' (P. agnata x P. moctezumae)
Pinguicula cyclosecta
Pinguicula emarginata
Pinguicula emarginata X cyclosecta
Pinguicula esseriana
Pinguicula gigantea X moctezuma
Pinguicula gypsicola
Pinguicula laueana
Pinguicula lusitanica
Pinguicula moranensis
Pinguicula rotundiflora
Utricularia humboldtii
Utricularia longifolia
Utricularia sandersonii
