For nepenthes I got:
lowii
tentaculata
singalana
mikei
tobaica
copelandii
maxima x (trusmadiensis)
and finally, after 2 years of looking
hamata
and one new sarracenia:
S. readii (S. leucophylla x rubra)
Another bit of good news is that the 2 cuttings i took from my N. alata(highland) rooted.

Matt wrote:Bob is one of the most generous CPers there is. No doubt about it!Of course Matt, im always looking for new plants to add to my collection. Both, the heterodoxa and the 'Tequila' have 3 growing points right now. The heterodoxa is producing adult pitchers already but the plant itself is a bit on the small side so I decided not to divide it this year, next year for sure though. The 'Tequila' began to flower before I was able to divide it, so that too is out of the question. Next year I will divide it earlier before it flowers. I will keep you in mind when I divide.
I'm trying to get all of these clones (A2, G14, Petite Dragon, Spider, Bohemian Garnet, and Scarlet Bristle) established in TC so that they're available to the masses. I think that I'll be successful. I have nearly all of them "marinating" in vitro right now. They've been clean for about two weeks, which is a good sign, and they should form callus soon.
I already have Holland Red, and Southwest Giant rapidly propagating.
Hey, I just noticed that you have two Helis (heterodoxa and 'Tequila') that I don't currently grow. If you ever want to swap some Helis, keep me in mind when you get divisions.

I have a small backyard and to add to that, there is an old busted truck there and my pool takes up a lot of the room as well. I have several hundred Sarracenia and flytraps(mostly typicals) all bunched up in a 7 by 12 foot area. And all my sundews and Nepenthes are kept under my porch. Im going to see about selling some plants at my local farmers market. That way my hobby can support itself .crushingandy wrote:Oh my gosh, so many plants!

doku wrote:Next year I will divide it earlier before it flowers. I will keep you in mind when I divide.I appreciate that! And I realized that I actually do have an H. heterodoxa (must have been tired when I wrote that post because I didn't think about it at the time), so a swap for a division of just the H. tequila would be great.
