Greg Allan Posted July 30, 2010 Report Share Posted July 30, 2010 I really like what you've done with the Genlisea violacea. I can't see the first two Genlisea pictures, however. Greg Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lavindil Posted July 31, 2010 Report Share Posted July 31, 2010 Pretty nice your "aquavase" (I dont know the name), now you need to put some copepods and daphnia on the water to see the plant capturing them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zlatokrt Posted July 31, 2010 Report Share Posted July 31, 2010 You have done it very nicely Robert, i really like the aquatic culture of Genlisea. Are these genlisea from me? I have a small update about G. violacea, which you could find useful - it is G. violacea "Giant".

rob158 Posted July 31, 2010 Author Report Share Posted July 31, 2010 i've heard you can grow them as semi aquatic plants, it'll be interesting to see how it does long term. Wow.... nice pics! You can do U. alpina in water? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

allenphoon Posted August 2, 2010 Report Share Posted August 2, 2010 hey there, i just order some genlisea filiformis seeds, will it be okay if i plant it on water? can you describe the growing condition and media?thank you Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rob158 Posted August 2, 2010 Author Report Share Posted August 2, 2010 (edited) i've never grown them from seed so dont know, but i would think it would be best if you planted them on peat and then if you wanted when there older move then into a semiaquatic home like i have done, this is what Triffid Nurseries Seed Germination Guide says, Genlisea species, The Corkscrew Plants, Use a soil mix of 3 parts sphagnum moss peat : 1 part sand at temperatures of 25 - 35C. Genlisea often show low seed viability and the use of GA is recommended. i would put a plastic bag over them as well but thats just me, good luck with them, Robert. hey there, i just order some genlisea filiformis seeds, will it be okay if i plant it on water? can you describe the growing condition and media?thank you Edited August 2, 2010 by rob158 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
