Hi folks,
I've got some spare seed of Drosera communis from Parelheiros, Brazil available
to non-commercial growers outside the USA. This seed is for the end user, and
only for those with the proper conditions for successfully growing tropical
Drosera. As many of us know, the REAL Drosera communis is quite rare in
cultivation, and I don't know anyone who's currently growing plants from this
location. D.communis from different locations can be variable, so this seed
isn't your ordinary communis without location data. Furthermore, most of the
time plants labeled as communis in cultivation are actually D.spatulata or
tokaiensis. :(
I'm interested in seed of certain Drosera, Utrics, Genlisea and maybe even other
CP seed in trade, particularly material with location data.
If you're interested, please email me privately with a list of seed you've got
for trade and your mailing address. I've got a limited amount and can't promise
I'll be able to send to everyone so please don't get upset if I don't have
enough for you. Also, I've got very limited time, so please understanding if you
don't get a prompt reply.
Thanks!
Matt

Spring has sprung in East Texas! To celebrate I've ordered severa new
plants for my bog garden. These include 25 D. capillaris, 3
Dfiliformis ssp. trayci, and a few D. intermedia. I would like to add
more. I wonder how D. rotundifolia would do down here?
welcome, laurent.
maybe you could post your growlist here?

Glad to be here! I am going to bring one of my bogs to Texas next hitch. It will
be interesting to see how the plants adapt to the new climate.

Hello everyone. My name is Greg Nevels. I'm 40 years old and live
between Byram Mississippi and Carthage Texas. I have been a CP grower
for several years. I have always been intrigued by the Drosera family.
I intend to collect several types of these little wonders as time goes
on. Currently I own D. capillaris, D. brevifolia, and D. filiformis
ssp. tracyi. I also collect Sarracenia and the rock star of
carnivores, Dioneae muscipula. I'm sure I will enjoy myself here.
Hi Matt I just nick the outer edge with a clean razor blade(then toss it)at
least .020" sometimes I use hormonex #3 for a little protection. I normally try
this method first on all sundews(pings also) until i have enough to try other
methods. I havent tried this on any of the tuberous,pigmy,or queensland or
D.regia and probably the harder to get sundews

Hi friends,
I'm getting ready to send out some seed of a few things. If I owe you any seed,
please email me privately.
Thanks!

Hi folks.
For quite a few years I've been using a product called "No Damp Off" made by
Mosser Lee. It's just dead milled sphagnum moss. I use it to germinate seeds
(tropical Drosera, Utrics, Genlisea, Heliamphora) in and then have typically
transplanted seedlings into "high quality" New Zealand or Chilean sphagnum moss
when they reach a certain size. Well, lately I've been getting some really low
quality "high quality" moss from Charley's greenhouse (who I would highly
recommend for anything other than this moss!). This moss has had lots of dead
weeds in it and also sprouted countless seedlings of some grass-like weed. So I
recently I decided to use 100% No Damp Off for larger plants and I'm very
surprised with the difference I've seen. Plants seem to be growing much better
than they were in the past when I used long fiber sphagnum. So whoever's
growing Drosera, keep this in mind.
I should also add that I've always been nervous about using sand since a bad
batch of it may kill plants fast. It's also dangerous if you work with it in
dry form (silicosis) and I've had pretty bad results with peat moss too before
with a lot of plants - especially seedlings. Your results may be different, but
I just thought I'd chip in my 2 cents. If you're growing pygmies or tuberous
Drosera, sand-peat mixes are probably best.
Happy growing,
Matt

Hi Vigil,
Please refer to general websites (search for international carnivorous plant
society) and books on carnivorous plants (like Savage Garden by D'Amato) for
this. If you do a little poking around on Google you should be able to find
answers to these basic questions. This group is for intermediate to
advanced sundew discussion, not for the most basic of questions on
carnivorous plants.
Thanks,
Matt

Hej all
I would like to know more about the requirements for these two species.
I will get seeds of linearis soon and wants to keep them outside in an
artificial bog. I would like to know more about the soil requirements
for this species?
Also, A species like D. whittakeri, I have seen it listed as a summer
growing tuberious species. Can anyone confirm that? Any special
requirements?

Hi,
I am new to the group. I am looking for information on growing carnivorous
plants. I have a aquarium i can use for my project. Is this a good way to grow
plants or am i better off with pots? Can some one please give me some direction.
I would also like to know what plants to start off with as i do not want to kill
any of the plants. I have two of the fly traps that have been growing for over a
year. I was also given a California Pitcher Plant. These are in their own pots
with their own terrarium covers. All the plants are doing very well. The fly
traps even have flowered. now i am interested in going future into the plants.
Suggestions, Hints and Help welcome.

It's time to make more space again. The list of surplus plants along images is
below...
Please email me at sundew@... for more info. If you normally get mail
directly from me when I get rid of spare plants, there's no need to email me
about this now. You'll be emailed full info automatically once I'm ready with
it. If you've got similarly rare material for trade, let me know what you've
got!

DROSERA VILLOSA (type from Serra de Ibitipoca, Minas Gerais) **
PHOTOS:
http://sundewgrower.com/pics/villosa_ibitipoca_wild.jpghttp://sundewgrower.com/pics/drosera_villosa_ibitipoca_2.2.06
This is a big, beautiful NEW INTRODUCTION from Brazil. It appears as though
leaves can grow to 6" or so. Many growers mislabelled their Drosera ascendens
as "Drosera villosa ascendens" in the past. Drosera ascendens and Drosera
villosa are quite different species and look it! Drosera villosa is a much
larger plant with long, narrow upright leaves similar to narrow forms of Drosera
capensis in appearance. This is one of the rarest Drosera in cultivation. I've
never seen anyone else offer plants of this type for sale. This is a very
limited time offer / while supplies last, so if you want one please let me know
immediately.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
DROSERA ASCENDENS (from Salesopolis 850m, Brazil) **
PHOTOS:
http://sundewgrower.com/pics/dascendenssalesopolis32b.jpghttp://sundewgrower.com/pics/drosera_ascendens_salesopolis_2.2.06
This gorgeous plant looks quite different from other forms of ascendens I'm
growing. One look at the photo will show you this one's worth growing! Has
longer, narrower leaves than the Paranapiacaba form below.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
DROSERA ASCENDENS (from Paranapiacaba, 850m) **
PHOTO:
http://sundewgrower.com/pics/drosera_ascendens_paranapiacaba_2.2.06
Has shorter, fuller leaves than the Salesopolis form above.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
DROSERA GRAOMOGOLENSIS (Itacambira, Minas Gerais, Brazil) **
PHOTO:
http://sundewgrower.com/pics/graomogolensis_11_02_a.jpg
Considered by some to be the most beautiful Drosera ever. This photo shows a
larger cultivated plant.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
GENLISEA MARGARATAE (Madagascar)
PHOTO:
http://sundewgrower.com/pics/genlisea_margaretae_2.2.06
This is another recent introduction to cultivation - very people have it so far
and I don't know anyone else with plants available now.

GENLISEA VIOLACEA (Serra de Ibitipoca, Minas Gerais)

The plants for sale here are several months old from seed and many of them are
already mature and sending up flower stalks. Some of the flowers are noticeably
different.

Hej all
and thank you for letting me join this list. It seems like a serious
place, these can be hard to find on yahoo.
Anyway, I live in Denmark, Scandinavia and are a grower of mainly
cold hardy cacti and other succulents. Yuccas and some aquatic
plants. I also maintain a large fish collection from the mexican
highland.
about 10 years ago I use to grow also CPs. This is a part of my
plant passion that I have started again. I all ready have seeds and
gemmae in germination under artificial light-
My focus will be on locality plants from non-tropical areas.
Especially cold hardy species for my artificial bog, but also
subtropical and warm-temperate species.
If anyone want to wisit my website it is www.vildensly.com
Otherwise I will probably return soon with some questions about
species of Drosera.
Regards
Martin Tversted
Welcome!
Every once in a while I get an email from someone who wants me to
tell them everything there is to know about sundews. This is kind
of inconsiderate because I, like most people, have limited time.
I realize that some of you may have little to no experience growing
Drosera. Since this group was formed for the intermediate to
advanced grower, I just added this to the group description:
If you're a beginner, please do some research online or at the
library before asking questions here. General carnivorous plant
books like "Savage Garden" by Peter D'Amato are a good place to
start and have lots of good information about Drosera.
Thanks,
Matt
Hi everyone. I've still got some spare Carnivorous Plant Newsletter back issues
available along with some other plant books. Please email me back ASAP with
realistic offers if you're interested. Trades considered.

about plants and their names.
Author Neal has weeded through the Latin words that describe and distinguish
among plants and flowers and compiled a glossary of the Latin terms that appear

Includes garden lore and literature, such as why basil is the herb of dread and
suspicion, and more. Over 2,500 entries. Two-color illustrations throughout.

"Botanical Latin either intrigues or intimidates. To the rescue, whatever your
bias, is Bill Neal's nifty little volume."

growth, fruit and flower yield, better color and drought tolerance. The
Mycorrhizal fungi build a healthy ecosystem in the soil. This beneficial network
delivers water and nutrients to plants 10 to 100 times more effectively than
plant roots alone. It is especially valuable to potted plants, new transplants
and landscape ornamentals. Once introduced, the fungi will continue to thrive,
reducing the need for water and fertilizer, while improving soil structure and
killing disease organisms. Excellent for water-conscious landscaping and to
rebuild the ecosystem of tilled soil. Usage: 2 tablets up to 1-gallon pot size.
75 tablets.

A friend of a friend is travelling to Mt. Kenya and would like to see some local
carnivorous plants, particularly Drosera pilosa. Does anyone here know of any
locations of CP populations in that area or have access to a herbarium with
location data?
Please email me PRIVATELY at sundew at hotmail dot com.
Thanks,
Matt
