so expect lots of photos from me soon. each one will be titled "Photos" and will be of my CP's, but since they are assorted ones i will just upload it into chit chat unless theres somewhere else that i should be putting it on. so here are the pics.
here are my sarracenia leucophylla. you can see browning of the pitchers where the insects are decaying on one of the pitchers. also because of all the stuff its caught there is tons of new growth from the center. i counted 8 leaves!

so as you can see sarracenias never let themselves lose a leave without putting up TONSSSSS of new ones! thats just a little notice i made about sarracenias that new growers should know in case they see a brown spot so they know it is just decaying bugs and is natural. especially after catching a wasp ( like mine did about a week ago) growers should also note that wasps do not make good plant food because they are capable of making small holes and squirming a bit more than most bugs and therefore should not be fed to sarracenias often. but if yours is grown in full sun, is wet, and healthy will have less noticable effects and if its healthy enough, no effects! just one of the benefits from growing it outside!

update as of may 2010 daily updates. i will be posting some pics of darlingtonia ( or rather a quick video on youtube and putting link here ) but since im busy making the next little CP video for you guys and my YT viewers i will just give you all a link to a video i just made and uploaded. its a nice looking macro.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=41vkpuvPMbY thanks will get darlingtonias up tomorrow bye.


oh and please vote in the poll i just made. if their is a plant you want added please let me know and ill add.

Why would you delete what's here? Personally, I like being able to see all of someone's photos in one place so we can see how their plants have grown over time.

Yeah, dont make new threads, it would be a waste of space when you could just keep making additions to your first post. You could just say, for example, May 23rd: Plants of the Day: (Insert Pictures here).
That would make it easier for everybody to view your photos, but at the same time, save space on the forum and not have every second thread " Photos. "

I really like your idea, once I get my collection of plants, I might do the same, but on my grow list thread. ;)
