I'd like to know if anyone knows a good site or knows of a few places that sell them or if anyone wants to get rid of some. I've been trying to find some so I can observe and raise them but haven't had any luck. PM or answer here. Either way thanks. John C

PM'ed you as well.

Thanks Guys and I'll take all the advice and see what happens.

Thanks for all the advice and I am trying too do the out of the enclosure and I am also putting them outside for a few hours too catch some sunlight. Just seeing if this works. Also another question. What happens if the new leaf coming out is the one rotting but hasn't opened up? Does the plant...

The Nepenthes rafflesiana is planted in whatever petflytrap.com uses for them and the other is in sphagum moss or whatever the home dpot ones are in. I use destilled water not tap as the tap over here is hard water. I use a 60 watt lamp to light them and whatever light I have around the house...

I have a Nepenthes rafflesiana and an unknown I bought at Home Dopt and I have them in a ten gallon tank with the heat at about 70 degrees and 80 most of the time. I also have it covered with a top that I put plastic over to create humidity. Which makes the plants pretty wet. My question is...

PM'ed you

I am intrested but at the moment have nothing to trade.

Also forgot to mention I have them both together in a ten gallon tank on a slab of concrete with distilled water on the sides and a screen taped-up top to try and create humidity.

I bought Nepenthes rafflesiana from Petflytrap.com and yes the one I can't figure species on is from Gublers.com Home Depo. I am not to knee on the Pitcher Plants so I'll defiantly stick around. These Pitcher are bigger then the Nepenthes rafflesiana ones and the plant is the same size. Also...

I live in Texas where the weather right now is so confussing. It feels like Summer or Spring instead of fall. I am just starting out with VFT so I am not sure what to do. I may let them just go with the weather but I am not sure that's a great idea. We still get ninety degrees or more Here in...

Thanks PiranhaPlant and funny how it does say Hybrid SSP

Ok ,here's the question I bought a Nepenthes from Home Depo and it said Hybrid SSP. I don't have a means to post pics yet so if anyone has an idea what it might be that would be great. The leaves are slender and it has 2 inch pots at only three inches the plant itself. I bought one last week...

Thanks will do. So then I should start preparing it for dormancy,right? I ask cause again some new traps are coming out as well. Also it's yellowing a bit. I put them outside in sunlight and water with distilled water then bring them in at night. The yellowing does it mean too much light? So...

I just wanted to know when do they normally start coming out? And How long before they bloom? I ask cause I bought 2 traps from Wal-mart about the end of Sept. and one is already showing a flower stalk. If anyone can help me thanks.
