    Hi from Seattle

    Very new to carnivorous plants, but have just fallen in love with bladderworts and have been a long time fan of pitcher plants. Currently doing a lot of research and planning so I can fill a large demijohn I've had for some time and this seems like a great venue to gain some knowledge as well...

    Diagnosis help

    Hello, I'm not sure what's going on with a few of my plants and am looking for help or advice. Some look like they have some pest damage and a couple have fairly recent leaves, still with pitchers (at least partly alive), that are drying up from the sides of the leaves. My plants are all grown...

    Hello

    Hi everyone, I got into CPs a little over a year ago and have been referencing this and other forums for loads of care information and ideas so I figured it's about time to join in. I grow mostly Nepenthes, but have a few sundews, butterworts, flytraps, a cephalotus and an H. minor. Most of...

    Road Trip 2012

    I am doing a motorcycle road trip later this month from Boston to Seattle and would be interested in hearing from people who can suggest some CP stops en route. Looking for private collections that you'd be willing to show, wild populations to see, or CP shops that are out there. My route is...

    Moved to Utah :(

    I thought that I would reintroduce myself as I have recently moved from Seattle, Wa to Utah. Prior to my move I gave away my collection and now that I am getting settled in, it is time to rebuild. I am looking for pings and once I get a cooling system setup, I will be building a collection of...

    What materials are needed to start a terrarium?

    Long story short - I might be going to college in Seattle and would need an apartment there. It doesn't have enough space so I want to get a terrarium for CPs. What would be a basic list of things I would need in order to start one? I can have up to a 30 gallon tank :-O If possible, please...

    Anyone growing outside in Seattle?

    Hello, I was just wondering if anyone has tried growing some Nepenthes outside in Seattle, WA? That is without a greenhouse or anything but perhaps bringing them inside briefly during freezing time......around late December? I am thinking that some of the highlanders or ultrahighlanders...

    Eden Black Seed Trouble

    Uh oh, I bought some Eden Black x Self seeds from Stephen and it has been two weeks... Do you think it has been lost? The tracking number says that it has been delivered via registered mail in Seattle. I live in Portland.

    New baby drosophyllum all potted up. Some questions as well.

    I picked up a baby Droso a couple weeks ago from the local CP nursery... SO STOKED to finally have one of these! :laaa: It just kind of sucks that it had to be at the END of the season where I could safely keep it outside. :headwall: For substrate I used pumice, rinsed black lava rock, rinsed...

    How Wet and Other Beginner Questions

    I recently received a Venus Flytrap and Drosera Spatulata in the mail. They both came pretty banged up. I left them in a bowl of distilled water for about two days, and transplanted both the drosera and flytrap in a clay pot (two separate pots) using only long fiber sphagnum moss. A few...

    Hi :)

    Hi, name is Alex, from Seattle, WA. I just got a spoonleaf sundew (spatulata), and a common flytrap. It came up in the mail pretty banged up so I have to do my best to resurrect these poor plants. Thought I'd come here for advice from the veterans. Looking forward to making this a longtime hobby.

    Selling my Deadmau5 tickets :(

    Hi, just wanted to give anyone interested a heads up. Sadly, I won't be able to afford the trip to Seattle this next month, so I'm selling my Deadmau5 tickets for the show on 8/18/11. I need to get monies to pay off bills and rent and all that great stuff, plus I gotta eat, so this trip I've...

    Hello, My name is Nikki, I'm from Port Orchard WA (near the Seattle area). I've been growing CPs for about a year now, so there's definitely a lot for me to learn still.
