Hello!
I'm Kyle. Originally from Lancaster, PA, I moved to the Baltimore area for work two summers ago. While I've been growing CPs on and off for about 16 years, I recently dove head first back into the hobby and started buying far too many plants/seeds again. Speaking of seeds, I used to mainly specialize in growing them from seed because I like the idea of growing them from their very beginning and also seeds are often cheaper, thus more feasible to get back when I was a teenager. I still feel the same way, but I buy plenty of plants too.
Aside from carnivores, I also have a couple orchids, a trigger plant and other miscellaneous plants. I like growing basically any exotic or unusual types of plants. Around April, I also got into the aquarium hobby as well. I've got two planted tanks. One is full of Endler guppies and one has some freshly hatched killifish fry. They may or may not have some aquatic utrics and aldrovanda floating about in them as well.
Last week I went on a 3-day trip to the Rehobeth Beach, DE area and went hiking around all of the State Parks in the area in search of wild CPs. I did find some wild Utrics and Drosera, plus some amazingly beautiful views of the marshland! I'm hoping to do much more of this in the days to come, but it would be a lot more fun with people that share the passion.

Hope you don't mind having me!
