Carnivorous plants

[Chicxulub]

Holy hell PM, that's amazing!

Darlingtonia is fascinating to me; I grew up in the southeast with Sarracenia and they're similar enough to be recognizable but different enough to be alien.

On another note, my plants are dormant. I have three Sarracenia, three Drosera and one Pinguicula that lives on my land. I haven't seen this thread since I moved in here and I forgot about it and haven't taken pics.

Well looks like I left the Nepenthes out a little too late this year, I have them under two T5's right now. Any idea on if they'll make it?

just keep them warm and keep the humidity high , you might get lucky and they'll throw out basal shoots. What are the species / hybrids you've got there ?

Nepenthes alata x ventrata. Got them from Pete at California Carnivores

I went out today and took some pics if the stuff growing on my land. I have four that I could find/have found. Sarracenia flava, S. psittacina, S. minor, and Pinguicula caerulea.

The Pings and S. minors are doing well. They both grow in the more upland parts of the property that stay mowed and are gone to more often. The Pings are actually one of the more common plants in my front yard.

The flava and psittacina are in the back of the property where it is wet most of the year. This part of the property has been left in horrible disrepair for most of the past decade whilst I was in the army and is now so overgrown that these two species are hard to find. Indeed, the part of the property in which they grow/grew is essentially inaccessible with the severity of the overgrowth.

I just pulled my vft and pitcher plant from dormancy and trimmed back the dead leaves. How long until I should start to see new growth?

I have a dormant S. Ruba ssp jonessi from California Carnivores. It has 2 tiny Sundews in the pot too! Right now I’m not having much success sprouted Drosera binata seeds in tissue culture. I think it might not be warm enough
