I love your photos and always appreciate you sharing the collection with us.
Thank you! The camera is set to take photos as close as possible to how I see the plants and moss in person. The LED grow light brings out some odd coloration on the plants and moss though. It really makes the red Sphagnum color intense too :D.

They have been bought from multiple online stores as seed grown plants, with the exception of the N. hamata. The N. ventricosa seedlings were germinated and grown by myself.

You truly have some absolutely beautiful plants! I just hope with enough help one day I can have a collection half as beautiful as yours.

Out of all my flytraps, this one currently looks the best. It just came out of dormancy and is under my UV T5's to get it acclimated some before going outdoors.

The flower on the Cephalotus is progressing well. Unfortunately, none of my other clones flowered, so this one will be self pollinated.

The tallest seedling in the photo below is one of my favorites out of all the seeds I started around a year ago. It should look great once it is mature.

Another unique seedling of a different cross, but this one has some nice coloration.

One of my first Heliamphora. It is definitely due for a larger pot or dividing... I am unsure which I want to do at the moment.

Excellent work!

That Heliamphora uncinata is doing great! Glad to see that it established quickly!

Thanks! I am glad as well, from what I had read prior to getting it, it was one that could be somewhat finicky. Thankfully it never seemed to decline prior to growing well.

ImageSarracenia leucophylla var. alba "select 20" Washington Co., AL by Adam B., on Flickr

I have a while to go before this one really shows off its colors, but it will be worth it :)
ImageSarracenia flava 'waccamaw' by Adam B., on Flickr

The in ground bog is in its second season, and some of the plants are already looking crowded. It is nice to say that I did not lose any plants in there over the winter.

So, while this following photo is labelled as S. oreophila, it is only so I can track its growth over the year and be able to compare it to previous photos. I received it labelled as that, but many morphological traits lead me to believe it is not. The pitchers still look amazing though!

Well, it has been a while since I have had a chance to take some worthwhile photos. Between getting a new job as a Botanist and the ongoing process of buying a house, I have not had the time to really take care of things. All of my Cephalotus were lost to whitefly crawlers that went unnoticed until it was too late. They were on some of my Heliamphora as well, but I was able to isolate and treat them before there were any losses. Those are just now starting to turn around for the better, so I lucked out. Anyway, I took part of the day to do nothing but take care of my plants and try to plan how I'm going to move everything when the time comes. So, here are probably too many photos haha.

ImageNepenthes lowii x N. fusca by Adam B., on Flickr

ImageHeliamphora ceracea from Cerro Neblina by Adam B., on Flickr

This is one of the Heliamphora that was hit hard with the whitefly crawlers. The short mature pitcher is what the plant was reduced to, which was not even remotely close to what the plant was like before. It still has a ways to go, but the new pitcher is looking good.

This Heliamphora minor was recently potted up as it had started pushing out on its previous pot and had pitchers stuck growing beneath the surface. I put off the repotting far too long :oops:

ImageNepenthes "song of melancholy" (dubious ID) by Adam B., on Flickr

This is only going by its tag, though I am more curious about this one's origins now.

ImageHeliamphora arenicola x ionasi by Adam B., on Flickr

I know, it's not carnivorous but it grows in with my other highland plants. It is a great addition by the way as it stays small and flowers almost continuously. So, I have a couple Masdevallia with my highland plants, and a couple Bulbophyllum with my intermediates.

Thanks! Thankfully it is rebounding, I would have been very unhappy to lose that plant.
