Hey All:
I'm looking for an N. madagascariensis and figured I'd ask around here. I've been doing some plant maintenance over the past few months and have a few cuttings/plants to spare. What come to mind are -
N. amp. "Bau Green" - Cutting. (This appears to be rooting)
N. amp 'Williams Red' x...
I just wanted to document how long it takes to generate some new plants from a small Cephalotus. I always think it's a good idea, if possible, to propagate a new plant.
I received the plant 4 weeks ago tomorrow, from a generous giveaway from Dexenthes (thanks!). The plant looked beautiful...
I should start out by warning that this contest will probably take a couple months to resolve itself. The plants are slow growing in my conditions.
I bought a Monstera deliciosa albovariegata at a sale 3 or so years ago at a San Francisco Botanical Garden plant sale. It was a nice looking...
I thought it would be useful to start a thread about growing Begonias from seed, and Begonia dregei, in particular, for a couple reasons. Begonia seeds are tiny, and I think a lot of people assume they are near impossible to grow successfully. Begonia dregei is a really fun Begonia, and one of...
This is sort of a redo of a post I had from about a month ago:

I showed a friend who does not grow Nepenthes a photo of Nepenthes bicalcarata and he...
I have one rooted cutting of N. tiveyi 'Red' [Nepenthes tiveyi is not an accepted name - see CP Database, and N. 'Red' is not a valid, registered cultivar name, as the single quotes would indicate.] available to give away (recipient must pay shipping, within the US only). I believe this is an EP...
Thought you guys might find this interesting. Went to a nursery in Albuquerque today and after I struck up a conversation about CPs he took me in the back to show me this:
It's by far the biggest one I've ever seen, and the guy told me it was over 50 years old, and other than occasionally...
Hey everyone, I have a Nepenthes x briggsiana var. 'Peter D'Amato'
The plant is an established rooted cutting taking from growth that was producing upper pitchers. When the plant arrived it had one 6-8" upper pitcher on it. The plant is about a foot or so in diameter and roughly as talll.
This...
Around 15 years ago, probably, I gave my mom a rooted cutting of a seedling plant of Nepenthes burkei x truncata (purchased in 1995 as a seedling from Tom Kahl). The plant grew and pitchered beautifully in my mom's kitchen window for years--a North-facing window in the SF Bay Area. The...
I am going to giveaway some cp material for people who need them (lol).
>---Rules---<
1. You pay shipping at $6 or (for seeds/gemmae) I pay shipping
2. You get to pick two species of CP material
D. muscipula (VFT) (sprouted leaf cutting of low giant, a2, or green dragon [don't know which is...
for extrema ill take seeds, or leaf cutting, or young plants, or whatever works. but I would love to see a picture of a mature leaf for ID (i have been fooled too many times)
I am also looking for sesilifolia with pink flowers (pink, not whiteish pink )
again, I dont care if its seed leaf...
A little over a year ago I bought a Dracula vampira orchid at an Orchid Show in San Francisco. It came from the SF Orchid Society Booth, and did not come with a clone name. It was in bloom, and I managed to break off the spike before the end of the day. Since Draculas are successive bloomers...
Passiflora foetida has intricate sticky bracts around its buds, flowers, and fruits. It can definitely trap insects there, but whether it fits the standard definitions of carnivory is dubious. Some claim yes, but it seems that the consensus at the moment is that Passiflora foetida is not...
I'd like to expand my currently almost non-existent Nepenthes collection. I have plenty to trade, many of them considered choice plants. They are just not CPs.
I'm interested in Nepenthes plants, seedlings or cuttings (rooted or unrooted). I have some experience rooting cuttings. I'm most...
Hey guys! I know its been a reallllly long time since my last post. I've been busy working all summer and my first semester of college has been crazy! Anyways, I am coming to you guys to see if you can help me out with taking some Nepenthes cuttings. The nep in question is a massive N. ventrata...
This may be the single fastest way I have stumbled upon to propagate cephs!
I was taking divisions of a few plants about a 45 days ago and noticed this stolon. I noticed it because I accidentally snapped it off. Instead of tossing it out I wrapped it in a bit of lfs and set it aside. I was...
Here's my grow rack. Temps stay around 75 during the day and 55 at night, with 40 and 70% humidity respectively. Lit by an 8 tube 4 foot t5 HO system with 4 roseate and 4 6500k bulbs, a 4 tube 2ft T5HO with a 50/50 mix of 2700k and 6500k bulbs and 3 10w 3500k LED floodlights. Plants get 15-65k...
I have a huge collection of Sarracenia. Many are endangered, many are rare, many are from Meadowview Biological Research Station and expensive to buy. Two things have happened in my collection:
1) They keep reproducing, so I have run out of space
2) I am moving from the Midwest to Arizona and am...
