Q: What is in the FAQ Library?


Pinguicula laueana


Drosophyllum


Drosera schizandra


Utricularia radiata This is the FAQ Library, and it is where I store all sorts of interesting goodies that are too large to be dropped into the FAQ loop, or otherwise just don't make sense there. Take a look at the nice stuff I have for you!

Feeling insecure about your Latin pronunciation? Take a look at what Kay Klier has to say about this non-dead language discussion.

Ivo Koudela's list of old carnivorous plant books
Ivo compiled a list of all the carnivorous plant books published before 2007. This does not include books from the more recent explosion of publications, but is complete for literature from 2007 and earlier. Ivo's list is prepared in ascii, it is simplest for me to just attach it pre-formatted.

Nepenthes clipeata Survival Program
