Due to a change of circumstances, I will be taking a break from growing carnivorous plants. I'm more than happy to continue answering questions and helping out with anything I can, but will not be growing anything myself for a while.

Nice! Another person with more plants then my,i need more,keep up the collecting!

Nice list! I hope the move goes well!
Happy Growing! Good Luck!~

Nice grow list! I can't wait to see your heli once you get it

Good list, bigger than mine.
I suggest an Nepenthes ventricosa,
They are very easy and have colorful pitchers.
You should also get an N. Maxima.
I grow my maxima on my windowsill

You should put some pictures up and I can almost guarantee you somebody here will be able to identify them .

If you have more than 5 carnivorous plants that's enough to keep you busy, i had 7 last summer, and they took a lot of my time, so that's a big list there, congrats, and hope your resolutions work this 2011, oh by the way, get as much cp's as you can before 2012, you know what's going to happen on 2012, so get as much as you can before the end of the world hahahahaha LOL.

Good luck!

7 enough? There's no such thing as too many Cps

Thank you everyone for your comments and suggestions. I'll have a look and see if I can get a hold of an N. Ventricosa & N. Maxima. I have seen them for sale, but I only have 3 hanging baskets at the moment and my curtain rail is getting rather full! LOL!

I'm going to get photos of my unknown sundews up when I'm able to handle a camera, I have problems gripping onto them. Not to mention I'm awful with one, but we'll see. I do have some old photos of the unknown drosera but they aren't very good quality.

As for the end of the world, I'll surround myself with CPs so they'll get me before the apocolypse does.

Nice plans if you get a small nepenthes,it should be fine in a pot for a while,instead of a hanging basket

Certainly. I actually have a net-curtain rail infront of my window, which is extremelly handy for hanging baskets. Keeps them at a perfect height. I should be able to fit 4 or 5 baskets on it. Hah.

Nice! You could do that then,and at perfect eyeline

Update: The pinguicula moranesis I had was struck by bugs 2 months ago, the problem was fixed but the plant was very weak and has since succumbed to mould.

I divided my D. Capensis Alba today, I know it's not the ideal time of year however due to problems with the soil I had to re pot him and he fell apart, I now have 6.

Yay.

Sweet!,i thought you said your capensis hated you?

I thought it did. It has no dew whatsoever (yes I'm admitting it), I've moved it to my window sill now though so it should be a lot better off -- especially with new soil. I'm working through everything slowly heh.

The tiniest division is only about 2 cm across -- it's adorable! XD
