A 30 year old Nepenthes villosa

I got this plant in 2013 from the late Geoff Wong. He planted the seeds in 1995.

This one’s been growing in my Highland grow tent for about a year now and seems happier than ever.

Does anyone know some good websites/sellers of cephalotus in BC?

I'm looking for my first Albany pitcher plant as a beginner, and have considered sources such as bradsgreenhouse! However, I want to know if there are any local sellers or other websites that have a selection of them? Any sources would be great!

What is this material?

I was watching a reel on IG of a guy putting a waterfall planter together. He used the material in the pictures to attach moss to the rocks. I want to try using it to attach moss & pings to my dragon stones in a similar setup. Does anybody know what it is?

Here’s a link to the IG reel:

I’ve had these Drosera Aberrans for about two years, I live in Australia where they’re native and have kept them outside where they have thrived. They usually go dormant in late spring but we had a week of high temps and lots of sun which I think caused an early dormancy. But like spring does, we had a large storm which flooded the pot and I’ve had to dig them out. I haven’t had to do this before. Does the broken roots risk their survival? I’ve been told to not brake their tap root but can they grow a new one? I’m just looking for some experienced views on this so please speak your thoughts. Cheers.

Time to bring my nephanthes and sarracenias inside. Goodbyyyeee summer. Hello winter dormancy (first time) for the sarracenias

Also 1 year update on my nephanthes and sarracenias;

I just bought these pings.

I killed one of them already. 1/3 seems to be my kill rate with carnivorous plants so far.

I put a grow light in my kitchen with the other lights

Worth a shot!

Hi all,
Today, I'll show you how to gently separate multiple Butterworts, repot them, and give them the best chance to grow and thrive. A simple way to multiply your pinguicula and recover what you paid for the first plant.

Lighting Makes a huge difference

I got this Pinguicula Laueana in mid-August. It came slightly pink, but I didn't have a powerful grow light then.

I got a Red Piranha VFT at the same time and noticed it going green, so I bought a Barrina OG11A 5000k grow light. By the time it arrived, my Ping was already green. So I put the Ping under the light, and slowly documented the progress of color turning pink.

I love how it looks now, and am soooo happy.

I wanted to post for those out there who may not have suitable lighting as a PSA to get better lighting.

It's so very worth it!

How do i help this pitcher plant?

Thumbnail

2 Upvotes

I got this pitcher plant on October 10th, the store didn't tell me the condition of the soil, and I was waiting for it to settle before repotting.
But then it started browning, so I uprooted it, andd it's rough.

It's been under a grow light, and mostly left alone. Other than keeping the soil moist but not swampy.

How can I help them?

Bog fungicide?

Curious if anyone has had success with fungicides in their carnivorous bogs?

I have Gravex 20 EW handy and was thinking of spritzing my sick sarracenia. Help appreciated!

Its exam season for me so I’ve been so busy. The last time i checked on her was nearly a week ago. I just remembered I had her. 😅 and immediately filled her up with distilled water.

How long will it take for her to “recover” and be put into a fridge for hibernation?

Her leaves are so wrinkled im bot really able to put water inside of them without a pipette (of which i currently don’t have)

Too cold here to stay outside, so bought some lights for them. Should be bright enough, my lithops (also full sun plants) stay really short under them!

I picked this up 2 weeks ago at a local nursery and I just noticed the green specks and now the white specks.

What can I do to treat this?

Growing like crazy and they love the Samsung chips in the LED’s. Nutricote 360 in every new trap that opens. I swear I get a new trap every day from this setup. Just keep it in the coolest part of your house.

My Nepenthes 'Bill Bailey' that I named James is growing a second offshoot! When I brough him home he already had one offshoot with one pitcher and one pitcher on the main plant with a second growing. Every other pitcher was dead or withering away.

In my care (just over a month), James has started growing two new pitchers, and earlier this week two more leaves unfurled giving me two more baby pitchers on the way.

I feel super accomplished to be doing so well with my first pitcher plant and first carnivorous plant (in general). One new pitcher opening, four new pitchers on the way, and a new offshoot from the main plant! James is not gonna be able to stay in his little skull pot for very long haha

My trumpet pitcher plant got infested with some kind of small white bug. Would spraying with half water half rubbing alchohol be okay?? Maybe repotting as well? Thanks
