Out of 10 over cuttings of the N. Gracilis, 1 has produced a pitcher for me, and another one is on the way.

The growth:
17 mar


20 MAr


25 MAr


29 MAr : I think the lip opened 1 day before

It's spring, but we have no spring in singapore, perhaps the plants knows. They are flowering. Only the Droseras.

Drosera Intermedia EM Pond : Was about to leave for work and the flower started to bloom




Drosera Natalensis: A full bloom during evening


Nepenthes Gracilis seedling: 3month +


Drosera Adelae: Fly

It's been a while, I was really busy and tired. Anyway, I kept taking photos so I could update.

The Nepenthes new pitcher from the post above has dried up in the middle, the weather was turning to really warm hitting 93F Day and 85F night. The plants are going through heat stress. My Schizandra has already gone south and polifera was barely surviving, so I shifted it to my office where is much cooler.

Heliamphora Minor: Has put up 1 much more mature pitcher than the last one

Hi all, some random photos. In this heat, some plants grew well, some perish

I've finally got the cycle right, Banana skin and a small banana in the bottle, leave it alone for 2 weeks, Bag it up and when the life cycle almost end, you get flies! Freeze them and ready to feed.


Feed time: Flies on Adelae


Drosera Adelae: After not feeding again for a month, it went back being reddish/bronze


DM Funnel trap: Still dont look like 1, cilia is different now,comments?


DM Low Giant: growing the best among the new plants

All looks good! My intermedia EM pond never sprouted, I remember you telling me it was because I did not stratify. Whoopsies.

Looks like those Gracilis cuttings grew really fast!

Intermedia, Mine has a maximum of 5 germination. and cold stratify makes a difference of 1 more germination. i still have half a pack of seeds in the fridge.

D. Beleziana has no show despite all the seeds were sown

Gracilis cutting were successful I pot up the ones in water and left them at my mum's places, she has a small green outside her door step so we left it there for full noon sun, I hope they do well there.

There's been some talks on trading plants going on and last sunday, 3 deals were made.

Sealed some of them up

I think there was a mix-up with your funnel trap. Funnel trap/trichterfalle has never made teeth/cilia with that shape while I've been growing it, and It should make funnel shaped traps regularly.

sundewwolf, I've been having doubts. and I think its time i rename it to typical. While I'm sad about the incorrect name of this one. I'm happy it thrive over many in bad conditions. I'll give it a proper name perhaps if it survived this year.

Did you get the Beleziana from Natch? Mine proved inviable as well.

DavidF. yes. I think it was a new hybrid seed from him for us to try too. Anyway i heard from my friend who pass me leaf cutting of beleziana. the seeds are not easily fertile. I could have heard wrongly.
