A veteran of a couple dozen Broadway plays and musicals💋 I’m mostly using this to share pictures of my plants, especially the carnivorous ones.

Realized as they matured that my two clones of exappendiculata are not the same. Now they’re in two different pots 😂

Cute mystery Heli from @heliplants.bsky.social I think he’s a Mac x Minor, but maybe it’ll surprise me! Super healthy plant :]

I separated a new “low light” shelf for all my Heliamphora Pulchella and all my crosses with it. Pulchella is sensitive to too much light. I keep overlighting them, so I’m separating them out.

Heliamphora Godzilla has 3 simultaneous growth points coming up at once! She divides for me a LOT and I am very happy with its growth!

Just got a beautiful H. Tatei! I’ve been wanting a pure species for a long time. I see where H. Godzilla gets its pitcher shape from!

The drosera bog after a VERY long overdue cleaning! I’ve been working on not watering as much. There was huge algae and detritus buildup, but now everyone is looking happy!

My advice to make a very happy drosera Capensis? Put it in the back of your bog and forget about it entirely for 6 months. Oops!

I’m on vacation so my partner sent me a video of the plants 😂 Thought I’d share the carnivore shelves.

Yall, I received my new baby nepenthes Hamata today!!!! This plant is SMALL but I can’t wait to see him grow. Already you can see the toothy peristome and the super hairy lid. They will darken up with age.

HUGE ~5” pitcher on my ventricosa! It has 3 vines and like 4 basals. I wasn’t ready for it to get so big.

Got a new flytrap today that I found in the store. It has fusion in the teeth of the traps about half the time. It looks like a little Mohawk!

A brand new pitcher opening on Exappendiculata (on the left). I potted these two plants together in the same pot assuming they were the same clone. Lo and behold, the clones are VERY distinct 😂

I’m 30 and I work in a field that doesn’t require much tech or writing. My friends convinced me to use chatGPT to edit an email to a supervisor… I had no idea large language models had changed so drastically in the last few years; I get why people who don’t understand LLMs think it’s a god.

Heliamphora minor really is one of the most stunning plants.

My two smaller Cephalotus colonies. These are some of my favorite plants; my partner always calls them the “jellybean ones”
