+TerryDad2 Posted July 20, 2006 Posted July 20, 2006 A public carniverous plant collections subcategory of Nature. A place where gardens cultivate carniverous plants for display or sale. Wild populations could also be included but that runs the risk of collectors illegally harvesting them. I started this in the wrong area http://forums.Groundspeak.com/GC/index.php?showtopic=138728 Restarting it here
+Dew Crew Posted July 20, 2006 Posted July 20, 2006 I think this would be a really neat idea. While on Isle Royale last week I saw three carniverous plants. (In wild of course.)

If they are not for sale and only "on display" why would people harvest them? Maingray Posted Jul 20 2006, 05:02 AM Yes, def. exclude those in the wild. Why exclude "willd" ones? In our "Fen" we have a number of carniverous plants such as -Sundews - Pitcher Plants that are growing along the boardwalk for all to enjoy.
+TerryDad2 Posted July 25, 2006 Author Posted July 25, 2006 So there would be a parameters for -Display type (wild, nusury, garden) -Domanant genus or mix -associated fee -viewing hours -best viewing months
+TerryDad2 Posted July 25, 2006 Author Posted July 25, 2006 I've started up the group. Carniverous Plant Localities I'll see what becomes of it.
+TerryDad2 Posted July 30, 2006 Author Posted July 30, 2006 I got help, but I still need one more. Most people think they are delacate plants, but they aren't. These are unique plants that are found throughout the world, from tropical to sub-artic climates. I want to be able to show everyone else just how wide spread they are and how interesting they can be.
+TerryDad2 Posted August 5, 2006 Author Posted August 5, 2006 I got the officers I needed. The category is up for an officer vote. Thanks.
