I'm new to forums as well as carnivorous plants. I've caught on pretty quick to growing CPs and have found a passion for it. I currently have two 2600 lumen CFL bulb for my light set up, I would appreciate any tips and tricks on good lightening set ups!

The CPs I currently have are as follows:

Drosera:

•Sp. Lantau Island (x4)
•Capensis (x3 + numerous seeds and cuttings I've been attempting to germinate and propagate)
•Madagascar (x1)
•Binata (x1)
•Capillaris 'Emerald's envy' (x1 + cuttings I'm attempting to propagate)

Nepenthes:

•Ventricosa (x1)
•Ventrata (x1)

I live in a Zone 5a so the majority of my gardening is indoors within the limited space of a spare storage room but I make the best of it.

I look forward to interacting further with you all and to expanding my collection and learning more!!

Happy New year's everyone! ImageImageImageImageImageImageImageImageImageImage

I am assuming the first pic is Emerald's Envy from the tag... Do you have a picture of the Landau Island spatulata?
