New USDA hardiness map
They've finally updated the hardiness map from the 2012 version. Thought this might be useful to some of our members.
https://planthardiness.ars.usda.gov/
Looks like I've been upgraded to zone 7b(Kentucky).

Re: Cacti flowering in fall
These plants can be just late with their bloom. Or your summer is still ongoing. What is your climate? I'm in Kentucky. I believe we're zone 5b. Gets down to the teens(F) here. Right now I'm having highs in the 60s and lows in the 30s. Only thing I can think of is I gave my plants one last good wat...

Re: Sarracenia(North American pitcher plant) divisions for trade
Would you be willing to trade a piece of your bulbophyllum for a sarr division? Yes, I can do the trade. The Bulbophyllum is growing very large and there are places I can pull some off. It is on a cork slab with LFS between the slab and the orchid. I water daily like so: First drench with DI/rain/d...

Re: My cacti and other plants
Purps are usually the most cold hardy of all sarrs. You should try a division outdoors this winter. I'm willing to bet it survives. I have all of my plants in pots, no outdoor bog. I store all my S. psittacina, S. leucophylla, S. minor and hybrids of them under the leaf pile. The VFT go under there...

Re: Hana's cacti
Very admirable thread Hana. Some very well grown cacti. I've recently started buying gymnocalycium species seeds and your posts make me very excited to see what I grow from them.

Re: Sarracenia(North American pitcher plant) divisions for trade
I have seeds of Viola lanceolata, Xyris sp., and one that may be hardy by you: seeds of Sisyrinchium californicum. All collected this year and still waiting for more of the violets and Sisyrinchium to ripen and pop their seeds. And I have a dwarf growing Sphagnum moss which I collected in the Pine ...
