Awesome to see.
Believe it or not I lost my mother plant and I'm now looking for another plant. If anyone has it let me know.

Morphman, Would you like a seedling or a seed pod? My first seed pod produced 7 seeds. Willing to trade for exotic terrarium plants

I haven't fertilized mine, that's probably why it's still small in size.

Seedling would be great bro I got lots to trade and should start shipping this year soon. Yeah Willy I didn't realize just how much these ant plants appreciate fertilizing. Guess ants poop more than once a day. LOL Regards

You guys are killing me here. LOL Kinda sad now that I remember my mother plant. It's the source of most P. glauca in Canada.

What do you use for fertilizer?

I dilute Schultz's orchid fertilizer in distilled water to 50 PPM TDS. Then I use a fine mister to moisten the roots. Maybe once a month.

What is the point of these plants? Don't they attract ants into your house? They look cool but do they get rid of ants or make ants come to your house? Thanks. This is new to me

Here's a few that I grew from seed sowed December 5th, 2015. One had already bloomed but no seed pod. Willy's is the runt but usually the runts really surprise you. Good Luck Willy! BTW. my mother plant had a branch broken off by clumsy me. I stuck it into the sphagnum moss with a seedling and it has taken off as well. No fertilization and the roots have grown through the bottom of the pot. Morphman: I can mail you one of these but don't know if it will get to you before the postal strike. Justin: I have a seed pod that I'll trade for other versions of Ant Plants! Again, not sure about the postal service Cheers

It's probably too late to mail plants now.
