A garden's chronicles


Welcome,
At the times of social networks, starting a blog might be considered old-fashioned in a way but this is pretty convenient to share in a same place all my obsessions and creations.
"Strange fruits" is mainly focused on carnivorous plants as it is my main center of interest at the moment. You will thus find infos on the plants I grow, my cultivation techniques, my travels, updates on my research and publications as a taxonomist, reports on CP meetings, CP books reviews and much more. You will also find a lot of stuff linked to literature, music, entomology and drawing. I do hope you will find here a couple of interesting things.
Remember that this is a blog. Therefore, you are all welcome to share thoughts and comments.

Nepenthes thorelii, relocated at last!!!

Hello everyone!

I am writing from Ho-Chi-Minh City.
I had no time to post threads on this blog as I was fairly busy but as some of you may have noticed thanks to some carnivorous plants forums, my short trip in Vietnam has proven to be really successfull as, after 3 years of research, I have finally relocated the long lost Nepenthes thorelii.
I will post a a field trip on this awesome discovery later. In the meanwhile, you can see some pictures and read some comments by checking the link below:
