Greetings all,
As has been posted to the CP-Listserv, recently (May 30th, 2013) about 1000 Dionaea were stolen from Wilmington, NC's Stanley Rehder Carnivorous Plant Garden. Here is a link to the article:

A list...
Thought I would share some pics of some Darlingtonia growing in my bog.
Seedlings, various ages from 1 to 3 years.

This one is from a small piece of crown salvaged from a raccoon attack a couple years ago that I threw in the bog and did not expect to...
Hello,
Today I went on a surprise trip to a local nursery in Northern California. The plants were absolutely spectacular! I thought I would share some pictures:
A mess of Sarracenia flava and a few Drosera binata in the outdoor bog gardens.
Another bog pocket with various carnivores...
I have two pots with about 40 to 50 Darlingtonia seedlings each. The plants range from about a week to a month or so old. I hve all of them on my covered (fully shaded) northern porch right now. I was thinking about putting them in a south facing window sill, though. There is no direct sun...
I have many Darlingtonia seedlings and one larger one and was thinking about spraying diluted orchid fertilizer (Better-Gro) n them as a foliar feed. While I am at it, I thoughtabout trying it with some Sarrs and maybe even a Dionae or two.
Advisable?
Greetings all,
I am procrastinating right now and avoiding responsibility for just a few more minutes so I thought I would make a list of some of the carnivorous plants I think are best to start with- a long with some comments. This list is meant to be pretty general and is perhaps USA centric...
Are there any temperate CPs which absolutely should not be fertilized, however lightly? The plan for my in-ground is to have it dominated by Sarrs, and probably a Darlingtonia or two but to also have many associated plants such as Orchids, Meadow Beauty, Milkwort, Pipewort, etc. In addition...
I'm wondering about the feasibility of keeping Darlingtonia in an outdoor bog I'm constructing. I'm located in SE PA, zone 6B. In real terms it generally means hot, humid summers and wet winters in which temps rarely stay cold or warm for long. Lots of freeze/thaw cycles. The spot would be...
Darlingtonia californica - 3 inch pot
This is a runner I divided in 2011 so it should be well established. I've been growing the mother plant for over seven years. Location data is unknown but most likely it is from the so-called coastal populations. It has not resumed growth yet so the...
Drosera graomogolensis Itacambira, Minas Gerais, Brazil
This is one of the easier to grow and propagate South American species. Growing them long term (3+ years) is a little tricky though. I recommend you keep plenty of backups from leaf cuttings. This is certainly one of the most attractive...
I need about 100 Dionaea seed for in-vitro germination. Plants will be used for research, lectures and conservation education at Weber State University.
I am also looking for Darlingtonia, Sarracenia, Drosera and Nepenthes seed.
I have some mexican pings and U. sandersonii for trade. Please...
You guys already have idea of what plants you will buy this spring ?
I will receive my parcel the first week of april, from a nursery in france.
Im waiting for:
-Dionaea wacky traps
-Dionaea korean melody shark
-Dionaea charlie mandon spotted
-Dionaea dentate
-Darlingtonia californica(I...
I was going to wait on posting this data for another couple of weeks. However, in response to someone's faith, I thought it better to share the positive results thus far. Lest he break out the votive candles and start praying over cultures.....
Currently, I have been using PPM very liberally -...
I have just recently split a part of my collection of sarracenia, and have bags of left over rhizome pieces. I don't really have the room for them and know there is a bunch of viable pieces with roots attached. I am willing to to trade them for most any other sarracenia or drosera. I also have...
Hey guys I just thought I would start this thread because:
1. Cobra Lilies are amazing.
2. I don't see too many pics of them.
So feel free to post any pics in the wild, in culture, in tissue culture...whatever.
I'll start it off with the first one I've grown, which I got on Christmas. It...
So a few days ago, I got this really great idea. Start a whole Darlingtonia breeding project. Use seed from different locations because there is a lot of variation within the populations. Maybe make some hybrids from those populations and create something really special. Maybe I'll even get...

All purpose thread for all the cultures I have in the works. Most of my cultures are Nepenthes, but I should have a couple of everything...In the last two months, I have amassed nearly 100 cultures. I have listed the media in cases where it is not clear. Here are a few of the cute sprouts...
