which Myrmephytum produces white fruits?

r these guys diff or one in the same?

my Myrmecodia albertisii is fruiting like crazy. 76 seedlings in 6month

i wish the nice ones had been closer. i took a behind the scene's tour in 05 an there were way more back there. i was more into nepenthe's at the time

no plants were labeled

looks like my next plant to get. frank lets see some pics of ur setup

i really didn't know were to put this. i do know that Squamellaria kajewskii needs a male & females to reproduce. how many others from Anthorrhiza, Hydnophytum, Myrmecodia, Myrmephytum, Squamellaria, might need male & female.?

wondering if the new if the Cooktown has made its way to usa yet?

fairchild has 1 Lecanopteris ant fern with No Id. i gave Chad Husby around 15 diff species in 2021. so hopefully we'll see them in the near future.

abg's ant plant display is so far above ppl's head's u can't id any. there is however a few at a level to enjoy as of 6/2022.

Tlk abt getting a freaking headache. No wonder there is soooooo much confusion in the ant plant world. Greatly appreciate any insight. Hoya imbricata var. imbricata [green leaves & drk green speckled white/silvery leaves], Hoya imbricata var basi subcordata [drk green speckled white/silvery leaves], Hoya imbricata maxima [silver leaves],

Hoya imbricata maxima [red corona/flower--drk green speckled white/silvery leaves], Hoya  Imbricata maxima [white flower--drk green speckled white/silvery leaves], Hoya imbricata maxima [yellow corona--drk green speckled white/silvery leaves], Hoya pseudo-maxima AP1162 [drk green speckled white/silvery leaves] Mindanao, Philippines, Hoya pseudo-maxima AP1163 [green leaves] Mindanao, Philippines, Dischidia imbricata var flat  [green leaves] 

frank. thats what i thought.

ok. here i have [first 2 pic mine] Myrmecodia erinacea. i have had 2 thus far. in the pics awesome spines. the 3rd pic is from a member of Ant Plant Cultivation on fb. i tried to do some digging on this but there r so  many mislabeled pics out there or variations???

whyyyyyyyyyyyyy cool

does anyone have pics of Aechmea Brevicollis seeds?? does anyone else grow it??

Monolena is such a mystery to me. seems every pic of diff ones r named primuflora. r ppl just giving them that name or r there that many variants? an i was sent a few Calycogonium hispidulum but these i have r not. i believe them to a Monolena.. 1st 2 pics r Medinilla succulenta, 3rd Monolena wendlandii, 4th Monolena trichopoda, 5th Monolena primuflora, 6th Monolena primuflora flower, 7th Medinilla scortechinii flowering, 8th & 9th received as Calycogonium hispidulum [NOT] amuse a Monolena?? 10th & 11th Monolena sp. [Ecuador], 12th & 13th Monolena??

this one is freaking awesome with the blue flowers

when i first received this plant i couldn't believe how tall it was. then i realized didn't have a terrarium tall enough for it to go into. it was the 3rd or 5th ant plant i bought in 17' or 18' i think. i cut 4 branches off an stuck them in spag moss. hoping to get them to at least root. at that time i was asking around abt who else might have tried to grow out cuttings from their ant plants. i couldn't find anyone, i was also being ask the same question. and if i did i have forgotten all abt it. again i was looking to throw cuttings away if they weren't producing caudex's. to make space for for other plants. so i pulled the cuttings up a few days ago to see if their caudex had starting growing. i bury all my cuttings deep just in-case some might have rotted back a little on the ends. the ones that were growing to slowly i was going to through away. to my surprise they all had started both. great roots an very good starts on their caudex. also right after i took cuttings 2 cuttings started fruiting. again this has happened to a few other species cuttings.

thus far Hydnophytum orichalcum has quickly become my fav amoung my ant plants collection. simple because of its way diff caudex from most others. i'm training my mother plant bonsai style. as u can see in the first 3 pics. i decided when i first got into ant plants i had to trim back a few plant due to growing them in terrariums. less expensive terrariums r on avg 18"-24" tall. i could kick myself now for selling for selling my 180 gallon tall [4'] tanks. oh well live an learn. i'm wrking on a greenhouse outside for summer an one in my basement for winter. after memorial day i always put my tropical plants outside for the summer. the 4th, 5th, an 6th pics r of my cuttings i took when i first received this plant around may of last yr. abt 20 cuttings.  to make space for for other plants i pulled the cuttings up a few days to see if they where starting to take good root an if they had starting growing out their caudex. the ones that were growing to slowly i was going to through away. to my surprise they all had started both. great roots an very good starts on their caudex. i have other cuttings of diff ant plants that seem to take longer to grow out their caudex an a few others that r freaking awsome. i will show those in a diff tread later soon.
