    yummy goodies for the holidays Ho Ho Ho!

    This year I'm being the hillbilly gourmet for the holidays, fixed/fixing lots of special treats for friends and family. Back in June I got a big bunch of Madagascar vanilla beans and a couple big bottles of Svedka vodka and started some vanilla extract :-O Under the extract is a bag of...

    Madagascar Hissing Cockroaches

    Begonia bogneri: terrarium plant, miniature, epiphyte, grows in sphagnum

    Begonia bogneri is a very odd Begonia, as its leaves are grasslike, and it's a miniature. It's a plant from a warm, wet part of Madagascar. It's tuberous, although it does not have an obligate dormancy, grown indoors. For whatever reason, it's gotten a reputation as a difficult plant, tends...

    D. madagascariensis

    When I first got this plant a year ago it shot up then promptly fell over under its own weight and grew along the ground for awhile to about 10" before dying. I was distraught and puzzled as to why a plant would evolve in such a seemingly foolish way. To my guarded delight, before it died out...

    Neps for a Gecko Terrarium

    I'm going to be redoing my Madagascar giant day gecko's terrarium soon. It's 55 gallons, gets misted daily. Are there any Nepenthes that would do well in a lowland terrarium of this size with a foot long lizard? Any other carnivores?

    ~sigh~ Tarantulas and roaches FT

    I apparently no longer have the want or time to fully care for my T's and roaches like they deserve. I have been fully consumed with CP's, and have been neglecting them to the fullest. I hate to part with them, but I hate to see them perish even more. So here's what I have: 8" adult female...

    Madagascarius?

    Hey so i ordered a few plants umm almost a month ago. Anyways it included a free pack of nepenthes seeds I believe it was Madagascar something. I plopped the seeds in a pot of good soil and they haven't grown. It's been two weeks and I don't see any signs of growth. Are they dead? :(

    A reverse-ID? (Drosera)

    I have an odd question. Many moons ago -- about 3-4 months back, I think -- I saw an absolutely breathtaking Drosera in these forums... I do not remember the name but feel that it started with a G, and IIRC that it came from either Madagascar or Brazil. What I DO remember was the color, a...
