**OMG Clue made a picture thread! **

I'm back from vacation... it's time to celebrate with new pics!

Seedgrown boschiana (BE)

Veitchii x platychila (BE)

Big clipeata x eymae that's finally inflating a tendril. After 1.5 years.

Seedgrown smilesii from Dalat, Vietnam (BE) that's starting to pitcher.

Albomarginata x veitchii ♂ hiding in the shadows.

Plus some extras:

Fake Weser from Yann. My first living Ping.

Two different seedgrown reniformis from Ron.

The reni on the left that's starting to pop out of the drainage holes. Anyone know where I can get some good net pots?



More pics coming soon.

Nope. Smilesii and kampotiana are very different species.

Part Two:

Well, I fell off once or twice...

Dark red lowii x campanulata; it's easily my new favorite hybrid.

New clipeata x eymae growth point. I plan to air layer it later.

Big copelandii. Those are FOOT-LONG leaves!

Can I call my Peter D'Amato x maxima a plant now? I've had this plant for 1.5 years now, since it was a dime-sized seedling.

Poor shot of a new pitcher.

Maxima hanging off of the blinds.

Maxima basal!

Ventricosa "Red" x carunculata var robusta basal. The leaves turn RED!

Vogelii.

This is a large highland seed-grown veitchii from two striped parents. I'm hoping for stripes. Thanks Thez!

New pitcher.

Plus a little H. nutans for you Heli fans.

EDIT: Forgot my aristolochioides! Does it look like it's vining already?

Thanks Tal! Not bad for a 13 year old with a windowsill, huh?

that's pretty crazy that you can grow those by just using a windowsill with no supplemental lighting! great job clue!

It's nice to have a big southern window... except for when I want to sleep. XD

Awesome! Good job growing them. I have never seen a pic of albomarginata x veitchii. Interesting cross.

What is your humidity level in the house. I get nervous when the humidity drops below 70% for my helis...

30%... so far so good, but since I do have free time this summer it gets misted 3 or 4 times a day.

Yeah, albo x veitchii's a naturally occurring hybrid that's not too easily found. IIRC Malesiana Tropicals does have a clone they call "Konak" that's also a x v.

Nice pics!

I'll send you some net pots in trade for a pinch off one of those reniformis!

Net pots are available at garden centers that sell pond supplies and hydroponics stores. There are a few places here who sell them in various shapes and sizes.
