UtricSeb Posted June 3, 2004 Report Share Posted June 3, 2004 Hi, A friend was showing me some pics he took in one of his trips and look what i found.. a slide of a nice plant of Genlisea sanariapoana. I am very excited about this plant being found in my country, as you can see it has a nice big flower and as I was told by Fernando (who kindly identified the picture for me) it also has huge traps. The quality of the pic does not look so nice because i had to proyect it on the wall and take a pic with my digital camera as I have no access to a slide scanner. Hope you like it as much as i do. Here is a little page about the location and plants there: http://www.carnivorasla.org/new/en/fieldtr...ro-JMadrid.html [/url] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Loakesy Posted June 3, 2004 Report Share Posted June 3, 2004 As fond as I am of some of the more common plants, it's really nice to see pictures of the less common ones!!! Thanks for that! 8) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fernando Rivadavia Posted June 17, 2004 Report Share Posted June 17, 2004 My friend Gert from Hollland took some back with him during our trip to Venezuela in August 2003. We saw tons of this beautiful species. Hopefully he still has some alive... Take care, Fernando Rivadavia 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sean Spence Posted June 17, 2004 Report Share Posted June 17, 2004 Thats a large flower for such a small inflorescence. Thanks for the photo Sebastian. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fernando Rivadavia Posted June 17, 2004 Report Share Posted June 17, 2004 Comparing to the scapes I saw in Venezuela, the one in this pic seems to be a bit stunted. Usually they are longer, but the flowers are truly very big, possibly the biggest in the genus. Fernando Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Aidan Posted June 23, 2004 Report Share Posted June 23, 2004 Dino - If you are trying to source plants, you should post a thread in the Sales & Wants forum. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jonathan Posted June 23, 2004 Report Share Posted June 23, 2004 I do love pictures of plants growing in the wild. I spent 3-4 mths in that region back in 1990. I was surveying birds near the Venezuelan/Brazilian border, close to some mini tepuis too. Unfortunately, I did no CP searches: bit gutted to think now what may have been there.... Nice photo Sebastian Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
