To be honest, this is a bit premature. I have a ton of these guys, however, and they will likely be ready for trade in a couple months or so. Cyathea medullaris, the "Black Tree Fern" is perhaps the tallest of the genus (up to 20 m, 66 ft. !!) and also one of the most beautiful. Spores...

I've been officially growing carnivorous plants for over a year now. I am happy to say that I am finally ready to 'pay it forward' and do my first giveaway!!! What I have are two seed packets of Drosera burmannii (approximately over 100 seeds per packet). You can see a photo of the parent...

I have a Begonia luxurians plant which is about 12 feet tall and produces tons of seeds. So I have more seeds than I can easily deal with. I gave a huge number to the American Begonia Society Seed fund. These are mainly seeds that were harvested after that point. Here's the deal. Since...

Hey Folks, Just wanted to share a really interesting article from December 2014. Researchers discovered fossilized carnivorous plants in Baltic amber. http://phys.org/news/2014-12-ancient-carnivorous-baltic-amber.html Rich

So I spent a little over half of June and all of July of this year in Borneo and Australia. I flew quite literally, around the world and it was absolutely incredible. I flew from RDU to JFK where I spent eight hours sitting around on the airport floor. Then I flew directly to Frankfurt, Germany...

October pics taken before winter weather shut everything down. A week of overnight temps below freezing has sent all but the hardiest into hibernation. [/url]IMG_0887x1 by Djoni C, on Flickr[/IMG] [/url]IMG_0732x1 by Djoni C, on Flickr[/IMG] [/url]IMG_0794x1 by Djoni C, on Flickr[/IMG]...

Has anyone here had any experience with...
