OH well, some days you're the pigeon, and some days you're the statue.
I was thinking of the stuff from the last BCP order.
Good growing,

For Drosera leaves I lay them flat on wet paper towel in a flat container and put the container in a Ziploc bag. Put it in good lighting. I open the bag once every couple of days to give it fresh air.
For the pinguicula I just lay the pulling in the same pot as the mother plant. They don't like wet in my experience. Tends to rot them out.
