Martin_mtl Posted August 14, 2005 Report Share Posted August 14, 2005 I went on a field trip with other fellow CP enthousiasts this weekend. The destination was a bog near the city of Blainville. The Drosera were mostly growing in open sandy grounds, outside the bog. The Sarracenia were growing in pure sphagnum moss in the bog, along with grasses, shrubs, etc. Bog entrance. White cranberries. D. intermedia. Very red D. intermedia. D. rotundifolia. This location is usually inhabited with U. vulgaris, as aquatic species. This year, we found very little signs of its presence. S. purpurea purpurea flower (petals missing). Very red S. purpurea purpurea. Other S. purpurea purpurea. Nice S. purpurea purpurea seedlings (probably 2 years old). Vivid-colored mushroom in the woods. Beaver dam. Me beside...you know what. Hope you enjoyed! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AdamH Posted August 14, 2005 Report Share Posted August 14, 2005 Hi Martin, Those are really beautiful photos - the plants and landscape are fantastic! The colours of the plants in late summer are always wonderful. I wonder what species that strange fungus is?! Cheers... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stephen Crane Posted August 14, 2005 Report Share Posted August 14, 2005 Martin ,Those pictures are fantastic, This forum really does go to town on showing true habitats! I love em!! The fungus looks like a Clavulinopsis Helvola (yellow spindle) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Danne Posted August 14, 2005 Report Share Posted August 14, 2005 Yes very nice pictures indeed. May i ask you guys in general. do you take plants from the nature? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Martin_mtl Posted August 14, 2005 Author Report Share Posted August 14, 2005 This is a tough question, I will let the Moderators answer this one... Generally, field collection is not encouraged for CPs (several species are endangered and many are fairly rare). Nevertheless, field collection is now a ethical matter. Anyway, that day, I collected seeds. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Michael..Qc Posted August 14, 2005 Report Share Posted August 14, 2005 Salut Martin, Belles photos ! Elle me dit quelque chose cette tourbière ... @+ Michael Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dom1234 Posted August 14, 2005 Report Share Posted August 14, 2005 Salut Martin. Je ne crois pas que ta petite collecte de graine ait eu une grande influence, sauf si l'espèce est menacé. Il y a beaucoup de tourbière au Québec, et les amateur de plantes insectivores sont une rareté :cry: . Je compte justement aller dans la grande plé bleu demain, une tourbière sur la rive sud de Québec. Si je vois des choses intéressante, je posterai des photos. Elle est apparement très riche en sarracenia purpurea. Hello Martin. I do not believe that your small seed collection had a great influence, except if the species is threatened. There is much peat bog in Quebec, and the amateur of carnivorous plants are a scarcity :cry: I precisely hope to go in the large plé bleue tomorrow, a peat bog on southern face of Quebec. If I see things interesting, I will post photographs. It is apparement very rich in sarracenia purpurea. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Aidan Posted August 15, 2005 Report Share Posted August 15, 2005 Martin - Interesting photos and looks like you had an enjoyable and successful field trip. Danne and Dom1234 - See this thread for the position CPUK takes on the collection of wild plants: http://www.cpukforum.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=235 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dom1234 Posted August 15, 2005 Report Share Posted August 15, 2005 He just collect seeds, no plants. For me, if someone collect wild seeds with intelligence and if the plant is not endangered its ok. But if its wild plants, I do not have an opinion on the question. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
