CP terraium - Plants only

[jbradt]

Any new plants you got on order or new pic updates???

I probably won't get anything new for a little while, but pics are easy.

10g Droseras and VFT


D. filliformis flower stalk


N. Copelandii... finally developing a new pitcher after some time vining...


N. Ventricosa... the pitcher on the right is almost twice the size of the one before! the one on the far left should be even bigger yet!


N. Truncata... new pitcher


Sarr. Psittacenia... I was worried he wouldn't come back after my novice attempt at dormancy, but he seems to be doing well in the last couple weeks.

PS... post 8 in this thread has the original pics of the ventricosa. I thought the comprison was striking!

Wow theyve grown alot in just 3 months. They must love there homes. I still havent decided if I wanna do a CP tank or not.

Yeah, they all seem to be really happy so far. I've been surprised at how easy they are to care for.

The d. filiformis flowered for the first time today. I was shocked to see that the flower was purple.

 

[GEV83]

Why were you shocked to see a purple flower??? Is that not its normal color???

 

[jbradt]

I'd never seen this one flower before, and all the ones that have flowered for me have been white. I guess I was just expecting white by default.

GER: Go for it! It's a lot of fun :grinyes:

Jb: your plants must be happy!

I have to say that this is one of the few things that I've found to be as rewarding as my aquariums... and as addictive. :laugh:

I cant get any more plants till I finish my garden outside my window. I had to remove everything cuz they came to restucko (sp?) the house and I didnt want any of that stuff on my plants. Now I got to put the plants back which is gonna be a pain. On the plus side I need to lose some weight and digging all those holes will be one very good work out lol.

Ive noticed most things I get into become addicting. Like my fish, my plants outside all the plants I use to have inside lol. Once I get my own house ill prob go crazy and fill my house with plants and animals.

CP's are nice but I think its best I hold of till I get everything else under control here.
