Oy! I've done this!
I brought quite a few plants back from the ICPS conference a while back. Didn't have any problems at the borders, but I had printed out the sheet showing the legalities involved and brought it with me.
I didn't declare that I had the plants, but would've declared them had...
Gosh Dangit! I'm in Guelph at the moment, but without a car, my only way of getting around is GO, which, of course, re-routes through Toronto to get to Hamilton! I'd totally come down if I could, but the 2+ hour trip would be a bit much.
If you're lacking in pics of native Ontario stuff, here...
GIMP is a really great free photoshop alternative for light use: http://www.gimp.org/
I refuse to purchase monthly plans for Adobe software, I'm currently only a Lightroom user, so I'm fine for now, but I see bad things in the future of single payment purchases.
Thanks Thez! I believe this is a former ascendens that was re-labeled by whoever sent it to me. As far as I know, it's from a location that's fairly uncommon in cultivation, but it isn't being particularly special compared to my other former ascendens.
Thanks everyone!
@NaN: Thanks! I think it's temperature related. They were green until it got wintery around here. Night temperatures are currently around 68f and daytime would probably be around 75f in the boxes. The lights have been the same for the last two years and this is the reddest I've...
Hey Y'all! I'm back from college and my plants aren't even dead! :-O
Anyways, these guys have been sitting under their lights in plastic tupperware bins with the bottom full of about a half inch of water for the past three months. No other care was given, only water and light.

Goodness! I remember tangling with mass over the IDs on his D. ascendens a while back based on information Fernando discussed at the last ICPS conference. I'm glad someone is finally backing me up. :D
Ramdacc, there are multiple sellers in the EU (which is a single CITES zone) that vend S. oreophila legally. He probably got the plants from them and is now selling seeds from his stock.
Thanks Maiden!
@Butch, I agree, a lot of reptiles have really great personalities. I especially liked the iguana at the very end. It seemed to have a bit of an attitude problem!
The V. macraei is a prize shot for me. I've been wanting to get a good shot of one of those for years. Finally got...
For sure, there's some interesting stuff up here Graham, but there were also lots of Ball Pythons and Corns to wade through. I imagine if you went to a more niche expo like Hamburg would probably yield some more interesting finds. Plus, lots of these animals were just display and weren't...
