Massive lid on the Hillers giant

Going to go through a lot of water this week....

Somehow ended up with utricularia subulata in one of my pots of seedgrown leucophylla. What are the chances it hitch hiked in the bag of peat moss?

Most likely someone gave it to you as a bonus.

I'd quarantine that pot unless you want it in your entire collection. Some U. subulata are cleistogamous and can set seed without even having their flowers open or being pollinated. It's a neat little plant but I wouldn't want to grow it for fear of it ending up in all my pots.

Good tip! Definitely don't want it in every pot haha.

Once you see it, it's too late. I've managed to get rid of it in the past. Now I just ignore it.

Managed to save about 30 filiformis from some unknown rodent digging in my sundew barrel bog. Hopefully they don't mind being transplanted in the middle of the summer.

Pesky rodents! I bet the filiformis bounce right back though.

Everything is starting to slow down around here. (Except the leuco's and alata)

Today's project, 4x2 insulated cedar bog planter. Pond liner will arrive on Wednesday! PVC watering system with lava rock at the bottom. Will also have an over flow 1 inch below the soil line so it doesn't flood in heavy rains. Goal is to be able to mulch the top and leave it out through the Fraser valley winters!









so awesome!!! your idea has been stolen lol.
