RL7836 Posted March 28, 2013 Report Share Posted March 28, 2013 Great growing - congratulations & thanks for sharing! Did your U. campbelliana ever finish flowering from January? Your U. mannii seems like a very robust grower - what media do you use for it (& the quelchii & campbelliana)? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marc S. Posted March 29, 2013 Author Report Share Posted March 29, 2013 (edited) Hi, Utricularia mannii is indeed a robust grower at least for me, but the most difficult part is the dormancy I guess - let's see how this works... It is growing in peat with few perlite and maybe a perlite/sand drainage, but I'm not sure about that anymore. Utricularia quelchii is growing in pure living sphagnum with some sand in it. Utricularia campbelliana is growing in a small clay pot with sand, some xaxim waste from cutting, small pine bark pieces, a bit of perlite and an unknown moss. It's standing in a small tray which I fill up with water every day or second, because the water is evaporating so fast and by that keeps the pot always cool. With this method I have the best experience sofar... Did your U. campbelliana ever finish flowering from January? To some point I thought the flower stalk is progressing quite fast, but the most time consuming part seems to be the development of the bud. I hope it's not stuck in this stage... :S Does someone has the same experience with this species?

Marc S. Posted April 20, 2013 Author Report Share Posted April 20, 2013 Hi, here are some updates... Heliamphora minor var. pilosa Auyan Tepui 'giant' show it's potential in getting even bigger... Heliamphora sarracenioides seems to produce full adult leaves now or near to it! Nepenthes hurreliana made a much bigger pitcher than befor. Nepenthes dubia Malea intermediate pitcher. Nepenthes villosa finally succeded producing a new pitcher after I broke a couple of tendrils... Heliamphora exappendiculata 'giant bubble' Aprada Tepui Left Heliamphora exappendiculata Araopan Tepui - luckily the pollination worked between the two, just wait for the seeds now! Heliamphora ionasii produced a relatively big pitcher out of a side shoot - I was quite surprised about the size of it. Hope you like them. .. ;-) Cheers Marc 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Marc S. Posted November 25, 2013 Author Report Share Posted November 25, 2013 Hi, here some news from my basement... One of my dream when I started with this hobby - to get Utricularia menziesii to flower! U. jamesoniana is doing great on the small bark and starts to explore it a bit more after I added some moss... Mainly different Heliamphora exappendiculata... Two Heliamphora minor var. pilosa clones from Auyan Tepui, my crowded Drosera pot (four roraime locations, two hirticalyx, solaris, kaieteurensis, spec. Auyan, meristocaulis) and many many different Heliamphora pulchella... Stegolepsis hitchcockii, which should get some blue leafs with better light conditions...
