Hello! I just got a plug of this in the mail and was wondering whether anyone here has some cultivation tips. From what I've read it's somewhere between a terrestrial and an affixed aquatic. The photos online seem to show it sometimes growing submerged with a cm or two of water, and sometimes in...

Adding to the list an approx. 1 inch plug of U. Fulva, grown as an affixed aquatic in lowland conditions. Will take care of shipping, US only, excluding CA. Bidding starts at $5.

So can someone tell me if U. Alpina is aquatic? because I have it sitting in a container with water. Yet the roots have turned brown due to water evaporation. suggestions?

What's your favorite soil mix for Pinguiculas? I grow mostly Mexican Pings and wondering what soil mix do you use? Here are a few I have written down. I've been using #2 but want to try some other mixes. 1: 3 Parts Sand and 1 Part Peat 2: 1 Part Sand, 1 Part Perlite, 1 Part Peat 3: 1 Part...

I have several handfuls of U. gibba for trade. This is a easy to grow aquatic species. Mine is cultivated in RO water and very clean and free of algae. I'm looking to trade for: Mexican ping leaf pulls or small plantlets. Sarracenia seedlings or plants, species or hybrids. Terrestrial...

Hi all, I'm looking to start a small African tank for Utricularia reflexa ( http://www.cpphotofinder.com/utricul...flexa-733.html ), a free floating African species. In the wild, this plant grows in shallow water among grasses, sedges and other emergent aquatics. My biggest question here is...

Are there any animals that are known to eat Aldrovanda? I started an aquatic plant container recently and today found most of the Aldrovanda missing, a clump of Utricularia that looks like it has been teased apart, and quite a lot of animal poop scattered near, and in the water. It certainly...

This Utric was sent to me under the wrong ID about oh 10 years ago and it has never flowered for me or anyone I've sent it too. Pretty easy grower, probably needs repotting or something. Very likely U. tricolor but without flowers... Continental US only and we don't ship to CA anymore...

I have some Pings planted in API Aquatic Plant Media. Does this media wick water UP to the plant or do I still need to top water? I tried to feel the top layer BUT can't tell if it's wet or my imagination! Here's one of the plants: ANY other advice in using this media for Pings? Thank you so...

Hello everyone!! I am excited to be here on TF! I have been growing CP's for a few years now and i am slowly getting better. I am always interested in new and better ways to grow plants. I have been starting off slowly and adding a few new plants each year. I have mostly outdoor plants, and I...

Fool-proof Aldrovanda culture... in a bucket DISCLAIMER: not fool-proof. If you are a fool, this might not work. I didn't come up with my Aldrovanda approach. pearldiver (Paul!) did all the leg work on this. If anything I tweaked this setup to make it easier for me and less beneficial for the...

Just a FYI for anyone shipping into CA, last month we shipped 3 boxes (2 with just Cephs, and the third with 2 Pings + 1 Anubus nana), well the Cephs arrived safely but we got a call from the CA Department of Agriculture concerning the 3rd box saying that one of their dogs alerted on the box and...

OK here's Fred with another wort. I have a couple of quarter trays with this fern in and can see immediately that it is super easy to identify in the wild. That's once you've knelt down on mud and decided that the mass of green growth isn't grass or reed and your high power loupe hasn't steamed...
