Hi everyone! I've been trying to locate some Dischidia major for some time and never find anyone selling this species.
Also interested in other Dischidias as well.
Thanks! Hope you all had a great Thanksgiving.

Hi folks,
It's that time again! For those of you in Georgia or willing to make it to the Athens area, I will be teaching the 3rd annual growing carnivorous plants workshop at the State Botanical Garden of Georgia! The workshop will be held on Saturday, May 14th from 9AM to 1PM. It counts for...
Hi everyone,
I know this might be a long shot but I hope that someone can assist me. I stay in South Africa and I have been growing various CP's for a few years now. There are still many on my "want-list" and one of those is Roridula.
Do any of you know where I might purchase Roridula seeds? I...
Dear TerraForums users,
We have been discussing for quite some time the infraction system in use here on the forums. It has always been an infraction point system which generally meant 3 infractions, and you're banned. For most of us, not wanting anyone to be banned, would constantly give...
In May of 2007 I had major cervical spine surgery. During my recovery my having a few sundews among the orchids to control fungus gnats developed into a full fledged interest in CPs. As a get well gift my family put in a half whiskey barrel bog where I could sit on the front porch and watch...
Thank you everyone for all the well wishes these past 9'ish days. On Sept 11'th I went into the hospital to have older cervical spinal surgical hardware removed and a fusion done. I went home on the 14'thand ended up back in the hospital on the 15'th with some major complications. Although I'm...
<p>I'm very happy to be part of this forum. I had mentioned in my welcome thread that I was an avid saltwater and freshwater aquarist. I thought I would share a bit about my 90 gallon reef tank as I'm getting my feet wet in the world of CP</p><p>*</p><p>I started in the hobby not long ago back...
Hello,
While this is not a major emergency call to arms type of post, I hope that it will still generate a response out of this community.
I am looking to start a non-profit centered around the conservation of Darlingtonia. While this genus is not particularly at a high risk of dissappearing...
Since this wasn't shared before by members who have previously had Lowrie's Magnum Opus (published Nov 2013) I thought I'd post a summary of some of the taxonomic changes and new species of Tuberous Drosera published in the work.
Please note the old names are still valid and it is up to you if...
All,
I recently made the conversion from my basic baker's rack set up to a grow tent. I made the decision due to limited space in the rack and wanting to have more control over the environment as a means to grow more difficult species. Hopefully this post may help others who are interested in...
Hello everyone, I have a new pinguicula and am very happy with it. When I received the plant only had a very small (without mucilage) leaves, but is now growing rapidly and looks very healthy. In short, as you can see things haven't gone wrong, has many bugs stuck to the leaves.
My major...
Super, major, geeky, nerdy spazz. :spazz: :spazz:
I just got a cheap blue-violet laser pointer today (they come in violet?!? What rock was I living under?), and I've been playing with it all evening. I just discovered that it's really a black light, and it excites all my UV reactive stuff. Take...
Pinguicula rotundiflora
Plant up for auction as about the diameter of a US five cent piece. Another Mexican Pinguicula that doesn't seem any more difficult to grow (or propagate) then the major of the Mexican plants.
Plant will be shipped bare root. Winner pays $5.95 shipping USPS Priority...
The International Nepenthes Grex Registry (INGR) was an idea conceived and developed in an international forum conference on the internet forum www.pitcherplants.proboards.com in the later months of 2006. In August of the next year the proposal was presented at the Sarawak Nepenthes Summit 2007...
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...

Hi all, glad to be here.
My name is Erica and I live in Tucson, AZ. Not the best place to be if you like to grow plants, but hey, I'm only here until I graduate from UArizona. I'm originally from Oregon and can't wait to go back. I'm a plant science major and I work for the University, doing...
I was researching what is the climate and elevation of the various major mountain areas where highland nepenthes grow since I would like to try growing them and I came across this Link http://www.yr.no/place/Malaysia/Sabah/ . On the upper left hand corner, there are the two major mountains Kota...
And like most plant folks who live where the snow flies, one of the major limits on what I keep is lighted space. My house doesn't have much window space, and some of what's there is reserved for cats. I have a few set ups with artificial lighting, but still run out of space every winter...
Hey everyone,
For the past few months, I've had a problem with my outdoor cats getting into one of my bog gardens. They'll rip the pitchers off my sarracenia, step all over my drosera, and pull my VFT out of the soil and leave it on my deck, traps all bitten off. Miraculously, all of the plants...
