I was out in the GH with the camera. Enjoy!

More pictures soon; I'm beat.
 
'Extrema' seems fit. Lol.
 
Woah, never seen an extrema go that extreme...how old is the plant? very nice Katie!
 
I bought it last year at California Carnivores. The latest leaf I counted 47 points.
 
Looks like it's reaching for what looks to be a beer bottle.
 
Wow, nice! Mine only look like that when they're outside for the summer. But then in Cali I don't think you have to worry much about frost. :D

That's not a dead plant on the shelf, it's just a Mimulus with more seeds than leaves. It is currently trying to take over teh bog.

Nice! I guess the frost isn't what I worry about either - it's the week- to month-long hard freezes. Awesome setup! Did you make it yourself? I've been thinking of building something like that on the southern side of my house.

We had a friend build it, but it's easy enough, for one with the time and materials. It cost us about $2,000, counting labor.

Wowser powser! Now that's a nice setup!

That looks like you are right. :grin:

I don't drink, but sometimes we find glass bottles on the ground, and we pick them up and recycle them. I liked the colors of the two and kept them. I also have a bunch of old telegraph insulators that I think look neat.
