Hi all!

I have a D. multifida extremea for trade/sale, if anyone's interested. It hasn't really liked me, so im passing it one. It has one always gowth point and a few on again/off again points.

not my pic, but...

Adult specimens can catch small birds!

Wow, that's some cool plant.

Ok,

That is a Drosera Multifida Extremea, a plant, that has sticky sticky leaves, and devours bugs! It's a carnivorous plant! It can be grown in household temps. and windowsill light. It requires a peat/perlite substrate...

I am US based, and have my own website, www.coastalcarnivores.com, which specializes in such plants, and will have mantids eventually...

Oooh, I had one of these, but it got fried in the summer with most of my other plants...whats their cold tolerance?

 

[obregon562]

they are hardy to about freezing (~38), but nuch below 60 and they will start to go dormant. They should come back in spring, however.

They are native to tropical islands, but are fine in most windowsills...

Great. If you're interested in trading it for some mantids, PM me.
