regarding your request for imformation on propagating C. follicularis.
I have found this plant to be very easy from leaf cuttings, I generally
uese non trap leaves mainly for ease of handling, each leaf is gently
removed making sure to get the entire petiole, this is then buried in a
mix of 50/50 peat sand.bury entire petiole leaving just the leaf
exposed,bag up your pot and just sit back.I usually start seeing results
in about two months,although initially slow once the plants get started
they grow pretty fast.i usually get close to 100% strike ,I've never
tried root cuttings but I've had bad results messing with established
plants,and since i've had such good results with leaves why bother
anyway.
