Default The CP showcase

When I got into CPs, my personal quest was to grow at least one CP from each genera(generally those more widely accepted as CPs). After taking stock of my stuff, I only just realised I've actually met that goal!! I didn't just go buy the plants for that sake either, the youngest plant here has been growing for me for half a year already. Some, like the B. reducta and Cephalotus, date back to from when I had just started growing CPs.

Presenting: One(at least) CP from each Genera! Enjoy!


Aldrovanda



Brocchinia

B. reducta


Byblis

B. lamellata



Catopsis

C. berteroniana



Cephalotus



Darlingtonia



Dionaea

B-52


Drosera

P. cyclosecta flower

P. moranensis hybrid flower(different hybrid)

Congratulations Ifurita! Great looking collection. That R. dentata has tweaked my interest...I'm not familiar with it, but boy its got a beautiful leaf form!

So how many years ago was it when you started getting infected?

Simply amazing that you have all the genera of CPs. Hope you could shed some light on how to grow the more rare ones so that we can learn.

Congratulations on a complete collection!!

I have one comment the picture of P. sp. "Tolantonga" has a Capensis trying to hog the picture, and the Ping just looked so nice and cute, maybe you can try taking another photo of it solo? hehehe, it really looks so cute. Well don't get me wrong your Capensis looks in great shape as well, did it invade your Ping pot? Or was it intentional?

Thanks for the encouraging comments everyone!!

Hi shawnintland,
Yup, I like the R. dentata too! Its quite fuss free too, but man did it take a long time for the seed to germinate(I grew this one from seed). I've liked CPs for a long time, but only really started growing then around 3-4 years ago when I had to do some research on a local nep population during my uni days.


Hi malowie,
They were obtained from two different european nurseries via mass orders. They were actually fairly cheap, the Darlingtonia for example cost me about 20SGD after(not before) adding in the shipping and cert costs, which is a lot cheaper than quite a good number of my neps and other stuff.


Hi David,
I'm no expert, but sure if anyone here needs any info on how to grow any of these, I can share what works for me. What are you all interested in?


Hi Arvin,
Sure, I'll go charge my digicam batts and try and get in a pic of just the ping alone. The capensis just happened to pop up and since it wasn't bothering the ping, I just left it there. lol. For the time being, here's a random pic taken of one of my plants by a friend of mine who has a better camera and is much, much more skilled than I in using it:
