Your post is some time ago but i really like the pictures, especially the Heliamphora. Really very nice greenhouse. Regards, Daniel

Hello all together, after about one and a half years, the house finally is finished. It really took a damn long time, unfortunately much longer than expected. It has been extremely stressful to plan and to coordinate everything. During this long period, i tried to rebuild my collection again in the basement of the now rebuilt house. The species richness of my collection is of course absolutely not comparable to what i grew in the past. Meanwhile most of the plants from the basement are placed again in the house, only a few African Drosera are still in the basement. Nearly all the South American Drosera have suffered in the basement, especially seedlings and a lot of them even died but i had even losses in some Pinguicula and Utricularia. It simply was too cold and partly perhaps too wet because of the nearly not existing air circulation. But now in their new home they grow much better. For Heliamphora, Nepenthes, Sarracenia, Dioneae, Darlingtonia and tubererous Drosera i simply had no place in the cellar during the last 18 months. But since a few weeks i grow again also 3 Heliamphora and one Nepenthes, also a gift. It´s a really good feeling and hopefully one day i will have a nice Heliamphora and Nepenthes collection as before. I would like to thank again all the members (GFP and CPUK) and friends who helped me a little bit to rebuild my collection partially. Many thanks to you for your help. For sure i will be again a more active member here on this forum, after this incident it simply has not been possible. I´m back again. Best regards, Dani

Really nice location. Thanks for sharing these pictures. Best regards, Daniel

Wow, really not often seen species. Many thanks for sharing these pictures. Best regards, Daniel

Nice flowers, the second flower is a little bit more interesting. Small but nice. Is it already fully opened? Best regards, Daniel

What a small one. But with a relatively big and really interesting flower.

Some really nice flowers.

Hi Arnaud, again some nice macros, especially the one with the water droplets. It´s not that easy to take such good pictures because of the small size of the flowers. Best regards, Daniel

Hi Fernando, what a pity you have lost a bigger part of your plants. But for sure soon the wall will look the same as before, probably even better. Good luck and best regards, Dani

Hello Dieter, that´s really a monster plant. I saw it at the GFP-meeting in Bonn, really impressive. Of course i also like the flowers. Best regards, Daniel

Wow, really interesting flowers. Until now i have not seen pictures of this species. Please keep on posting pictures of your orchids. Best regards, Daniel

Indeed it´s a very beautiful species. For my sadness in the past i have not been successful with this species. Regards, Daniel

Again some really nice pictures, especially the last one.

Great pictures J-P. It really difficult to say which is the most beautiful. Best regards, Dani

Nice D. cistiflora flower.
