It's been a while since I posted a blog having been away on various trips and thought I'd share some images from my latest field trip to the wilds of Scotland.

It's a hard life visiting the stunning locations where carnivorous plants grow. I thought I grew P. vulgaris well, but......

It was tough taking a detour to the hills behind Loch Tay. I had to suffer walking through this landscape searching for more
P. vulgaris.

On the way to Ben Nevis I just had to stop at one of several
D. anglica sites. It had rained heavily the night and morning before, but the clouds broke kindly by the time I arrived. In places
D. anglica just about kept its leaves above the water level, with others submerged.
