International Carnivorous Plant Society - ICPS, Walnut Creek, CA Videos

Kenny, our Education Director for the ICPS, visited Nova Scotia and discovered several types of carnivorous plants including Sarracenia purpurea.

Karl @bk_ffox found the old skin of a praying mantis this morning, from a recent molt. A little later he discovered the mantis happily sitting in his Sarracenia Judith Hindle growing on his deck in Brooklyn. His son is buying the mantis crickets to stay full. #prayingmantis #sarracenia #sarraceniajudithhindle

Happy Belated World Carnivorous Plant Day!
Happy Belated World Carnivorous Plant Day!

Dick Rauh wishes you all a Happy World Carnivorous Plant Day! Dick came to botanical painting in retirement, after a career in motion picture special effects. The certificate program in botanical art at the New York Botanical Garden led to illustration work for a number of scientists. Ignorance of botany caused him to pursue a graduate program in plant sciences, and he earned a doctorate in 2001 from the City University of New York. Congratualations Dr. Dick Rauh. Dick is 98 years old.

Tepuis to Tucson - Growing Heliamphora in the Sonoran Desert
"Heliamphora are often viewed as delicate plants that require close replication of their unique tropical alpine habitat to succeed in cultivation. I have found that many species and hybrids are much tougher than they're cracked up to be and can be acclimated to less than ideal conditions and still thrive. In this video I'll show you how I cultivate these amazing plants in ordinary household conditions in the Sonoran desert." - @yreagwerdna All International Carnivorous Plant Society projects are directly supported by donations.

Growing Genlisea
Growing Genlisea with Vincet Green “This video is a basic introduction into the world of Genlisea. In it we will go over the general care needs to keep your plants happy. We will also see how the traps work and differentiate themselves from other carnivores. Once you see how easily these fit into any collection and how amazing the flowers are you’re definitely going to love them!” The ICPS strives to support conservation and education initiatives.

Deciphering U. dichotoma Complex
Emmi Kurosawa is the vice president of the New England Carnivorous Plant Society, USA and a PhD candidate at Biology Department in University of Massachusetts Boston, USA. Dr. Rob Gibson, a world renowned Australian botanist, and Emmi went on an adventure along the east coast of New South Wales, Australia trying to identify the *Utricularia* *dichotoma* complex (bladderwort) which was recently split into 8 subspecies by Jobson and Baleeiro (2020). Emmi then joined her friend Lisa Robbie in Tasmania, and continued deciphering *U. dichotoma* complex there. Introduction to the genus *Utricularia*, and the key to ID *U. dichotoma* complex are also discussed The ICPS strives to support conservation and education initiatives.

Propagating Drosera, Sarracenia, and Cephalotus
Happy World Carnivorous Plant Day! My name is Megan and I am a carnivorous plant researcher, writer and enthusiast from the UK. My video features 3 different propagation methods for 3 different carnivorous plants, Drosera leaf cuttings, Sarracenia rhizome cuttings and Cephalotus leaf pullings. These methods are super easy to do at home and often have high success rates, allowing you to build up a collection of your favourite plants.
