  1. Isodontia mexicana, a grass-carrying wasp that provisions nests with paralyzed tree crickets. This individual emerged from a cocoon that was in the observation panel of my insect hotel. I'm hoping this year that some will move into the pitcher plant (Sarracenia sp.) that I have growing in my new mini pond. Because apparently they do that. #InsectHotel #wasps #crickets #insects #sarracenia

  2. This sarracenia grown from open pollinated seed is my favorite so far. It only stands five inches but should be beautiful next season.

  3. In the paper Krüger & Wirth (2011) we elucidate various biologically interesting phenomena based on the #mite #Sarraceniopus #nipponensis (#Histiostomatidae) that is bound to life within the pitchers of carnivorus #Sarracenia plants (#Ericales).
    we have also dealt intensively with the #lifecycle and details of the #prematingbehavior. The attached #SEM photo shows two #males apparently #competing for the #mateguarding privilege with a #female #tritonymph.

  7. another kind of modified leaves, while i wait for this build… these are American pitcher plants, sarricenia, and they have a more passive technique for getting snacks— they just wait till they fall in! #carniverousPlants #sarracenia

  8. #Sarracenia 'Judith Hindle' ((S. purpurea x S. flava) x S. leucophylla), pitcher-plant, bred 1985 by Alan Hindle in the UK and named after Mrs. Hindle, I think after Alan passed away, by Paul D'Amato, who registered it in the US in 1998

    Hidden in that factlet is a story about one person's lifework being preserved and carried forward by another.

  9. Went to one of my favorite local nurseries today. Got 2 sarracenia hybrids (Dana’s Delight and Bug Bat). Also going to try my hand at growing heliamphora. Fingers crossed it goes well. #Sarracenia #Heliamphora #CarnivorousPlants
