Carnivorous Plants At The Huntington

[DrWurm]

For the June meeting, the LACPS took a trip to the Huntington Botanical Gardens and got to tour greenhouses normally closed to the public. Here's a link to the full album: www.flickr.com/photos/drwurm/sets/72157620029835504/

I'll post a few of my favorite shots too.

I think this was N. x briggsiana x lowii or N. x briggsiana x ventricosa. It was on public display.


Dark N. Maxima out on display


Tables full of flowering D. muscipula. These were being grown for a youth program I believe.


N. bokorensis


N. ventricosa


Unidentified Heliamphora


Table full of pinguicula


A dangerous place to be a gnat


S. flava var. rugelii in their bog garden


For an idea of size


Unidentified sarracenia hybrid

Hello,

Actually, the Heliamphora looks like a typical H. heterodoxa X minor...looks like pitchers with proper spoons are just starting to appear.

Happy Growing,

Brian.

Thanks Brian. I'll change the title of that one.
