If anyone can identify this beauty I bought from my local, favorite fish store it would be much appreciated! I’m guessing here but I think it’s a Ludwigia?

Silver Dollar Vine/ Xerosicyos danguyi

[aquaplant]

I think this plant has so many common names that I’m not going to even try! The scientific name is Coleus ambionicus. My amazing friend gave me amazing plants today! So many new posts sure to come.

Look at these monster vandas!

[aquaplant]

Look at these fucking Nepenthes! I’ve never seen some that big. They could probably eat a whole mouse. If anyone knows what specific species or hybrid they are please let me know. They were absurd.

Oh my goodness it was so cool to see all these orchids. Vandas, Dendrobium, oncidiums, Phalaenopsis and ones the owner hybridized herself in laboratory. It was absurdly fun.

Some Phalaenopsis I saw today too.

They literally had hundreds of them. And I learned why they’re called moth orchids. They get pollinated by them. I always thought it was just because they resembled moths to someone.

Ant Plant / Hydnophytum formicarum

My class got to go tour this lovely greenhouse. It had so many plants I’d only ever seen pictures of. There’s definitely more to come.
