CP CLUB THURSDAY for September 5th, 2024 Welcome to #cpclubthursday 🌟NOW 180 MEMBERS !🌟 SPECIAL FEATURE: The 3 Sundew Sisters: Tropical Sundews - the Drosera adelae, D. prolifera, and D. schizandra. #3sundewsisters I have extracted the following information on these 3 sundew sisters: Originating from tropical Australian Queensland, Drosera adelae, D. prolifera and D. schizandra, three closely related species, are considered as the 3 Sisters. These species are endemic to far north Queensland. They are unique to the genus in that they are found growing exclusively in rainforest habitat. Peter D'Amato has referred to Drosera adelae, D. prolifera, and D. schizandra as the three sisters from Queensland. The leaves of mature plants are about as different looking as any sisters could be but they are more closely related to each other than they are to any other Drosera. And like any three sisters, each has different growing preferences. But they are united in that juvenile plants do have similar leaves and the flowers are similar as well. The tropical Drosera adelae, D. prolifera, and D. schizandra are about as close as you can get to jungle sundews. There are other Drosera that live in tropical regions and overlap the range of these species such as Drosera burmannii, D. indica, D. banksii, and D. spatulata, but they are not restricted to the wet tropical habitats and are definitely not jungle or rainforest plants. Well, actually, there is now a new sister! Recently a fourth "sister" was discovered and it was named Drosera buubugujin. For anyone really interested, I recommend the following video: https:// Here’s some more info to expand on the above: https:// https:// https:// I have added many posts about the conditions and care of various CPs in previous #cpclubthursday so I recommend people follow the hashtag, may of them also have my own group #seymour so may be easier to find there.

Hey y'all! I've been busy the past few days, so first off happy (late) holidays to everybody 😀 Aside from family stuff, I've been primarily busy with plant stuff. This past Thursday I spent a while dividing 2 of my venus fly traps! Goodness, they had really multiplied in those pots!! I decided to split them up into several tiny venus fly traps instead of leaving bigger clumps so I didn't have to repot them again for a bit. They do look a bit sad at the moment, and that's mainly because they're all pretty dormant at the moment. Majority of them do have larger traps, they just shed them for the winter :) I now have a crazy amount of venus fly traps, but it'll be fun watching them all grow over summer! 😆 I've also managed to keep my Heliamphora Minor alive so far. I made a little mistake with the watering (didn't realize it in fact is not watered like a Nepenthes) but it has recovered since then luckily. Another little update is on my Sarracenia seedling!! It's definitely one of my favorite plants at the moment just because of how absolutely adorable the little baby pitcher is! It's so tiny too!! It's grown a lot since it first sprouted roughly 2 weeks ago. And, my Nepenthes Alata is also growing super well! I don't post my nepenthes often, but they are up there with my fav plants. The pitcher pictured is from my Nepenthes Alata. :) #cpclubthursday #venusflytrap #nepenthes #sarracenia #seedling #pitcherplant #carnivorousclub #carnivorousplants #merranda #happyplants #plantsmakepeoplehappy #plantaddict #newgrowth #seedlings

#cpclubthursday CP CLUB THURSDAY for October 17th 2024 Welcome to #cpclubthursday 🌟NOW OVER 200 MEMBERS !🌟 FOCUS: Sarracenia Flava (var. CUPREA) Hi Members, final days to compete or vote for the prize of a Venus Fly Trap from Greg Shop at the following link: https:// As we move into dormancy for many members, I thought I would focus on a Sarracenia Flava (variation Cuprea). I noticed them on sale by a local supplier (and sold in their dormant state as a dormant rhizome without the wonderful traps during winter months) which doesn’t look glamorous when you pot it but once those traps grow, see what it looks like in the photos below. And I’ll had some cool short videos from California Carnivores in a comment below 👇 I have seen some great CPs being shared by #cpclubthursday these week so thanks for including the hashtag to alert other members to your posts! I have also added many posts about the conditions and care of various CPs in previous #cpclubthursday so I recommend people follow the hashtag, may of them also have my own group #seymour so may be easier to find there.

This past week I got some amazing packages.. #plantmail ! I've wanted a specific Sarracenia for a very long time now (think nearly 2 years), and I decided to finally buy it! It's a Sarracenia x moorei 'Leah Wilkerson'. Whats so special about it? Well, as of last year atleast, it's one of the tallest ever recorded Sarracenia! It was found on a privately owned bog up in Northern Florida. The name leah wilkerson comes from the owner of the bog. The crazy part is that the plant in the wild has a diameter of 6ft and the tallest pitcher was 50in tall!! Even better, it's an x moorei, which is the fancy name for a hybrid between S. Flava and S. Leucophylla. This means that it puts out 2 stunning sets of pitchers : 1 in early season and 1 in late season! I'm so happy that I got this plant .. it's currently close to 2ft tall, but with age it'll get even bigger! It should begin putting out it's late season pitchers here soon, and I'm so excited!! Now for the other plants: •A Sarracenia rubra ssp. gulfensis x leucophylla. It puts out stunning pitchers that look like they are mainly influenced by the leucophylla in the mix. The pitchers are absolutely GORGEOUS! these get pretty tall as well 😄 I've been looking to get some more late season Sarracenia since I mainly have early season ones, so most of these are late season. • A Sarracenia leucophylla "purple lips" x flava var rubricorpora) x 'Opakapaka' , got this plant because it's absolute stunning! Not really much more to say about it. • Last but not least, a Venus Fly Trap "brutal shark", it has tiny spiky triangular teeth and once it matures more it'll get a red ring just below the teeth! Always love venus fly traps 😁 (Pictures went out of order, of course!) #cpclubthursday #carnivorousplants #carnivorousclub #venusflytrap #sarracenia #pitcherplant #merranda #plantsmakepeoplehappy #plantaddict #planthaul

#cpclubthursday CP CLUB THURSDAY for October 31 2024 Halloween 🎃 👻 “Because if it’s Thursday, it’s Carnivorous Plants Club! “ BONUS POST Welcome to #cpclubthursday 🌟NOW OVER 220 MEMBERS !🌟 FOCUS: RECENT NEPENTHES SALE (Australia Only) Almost forgot! Last Saturday there was a major sale of Nepenthes from a main Australian supplier (Carnivaro - similar name to a US supplier Carnivero!) So popular is it that it had a countdown to the sale commencing and no wonder when you see the Nepenthes for sale. Some highlights: a Nepenthes Edwardsiana for AUD $749 (that’s over US $492 or £380 or 454 Euro!!!) The next most expensive was a bargain at AUD $438 for a Nepenthes Hamata. I’ll add all the photos I took in the comments below 👇 so if you wonder what Nepenthes can look like, this gives you an idea. And so were less than AUD $30 so there a Nepenthes for everyone! And being tropical, as a posted before, dormancy isn’t so much an issue as with many other CPs. Enjoy 😊 I have seen some great CPs being shared by #cpclubthursday these week so thanks for including the hashtag to alert other members to your posts! I have also added many posts about the conditions and care of various CPs in previous #cpclubthursday so I recommend people follow the hashtag, may of them also have my own group #seymour so may be easier to find there.
