Hey guys,
So, I have this little Nepenthes aristolochioides that is, unfortunately, just limping along and seems to be getting smaller since I bought it at last fall's New England Carnivorous Plant Society's plant show, from what I believe is that notorious MA nursery. My conditions are as...
Well I have been noticing that my Nepenthes spectabilis x aristolochioides has been producing really strangely shaped leaves, so I checked for pests none! Then the leaves coming out were even more mutated and shrunken some didn't even have tendrils. This morning I noticed the growth point had...
So, it's overcast... but stuff is finally growing, so I took some *slightly* blurry shots :p
Nepenthes hamata red hairy clone is actually quite a quick grower for me
Nepenthes tentaculata too - though that basal is really struggling to get out from under its mommy :p (Nepenthes veitchii...

I have had this little guy for a week now and thought I would share some pics. I have always wanted one so I finally took the plunge. I couldn't be happier and I'm excited to watch it grow.

Hi, I have heard about this troubling plant, and now I have one. I have read much/most of the cutivational information on this finicky plant. I know that:
1. It is hard to pitcher
2. It likes sunlight
3. It like higher humidity than most nepenthes
4. It needs a nighttime drop in temperatures...
So, I recently made some major adjustments to my setup. My space efficiency and light distribution have been maximized, and the ghettoness of the whole thing has been greatly lessened.
It went from this:
To this:
I'm hoping that the shelf part of the setup will be small enough to bring to...
Hey folks - so I just ordered myself a N. spectabilis x aristolochioides and a N. ventricosa x spectabilis. I also have a Ceph on the way. I'm going to need to up the humidity for these plants for sure. Right now my humidity in my grow rack goes from the mid 40s during the day to the 80s...

Hey guys--I'm sorry I haven't been on here as much lately, but school has been keeping me busy. This is my last semester in high school and I have been *trying* to enjoy it while I can. I don't think I'm ready to be an adult just yet :p
But yeah; that's enough about me. Here are some plants...
Hey everyone!
I just divided up a typical VFT that is coming out of a light dormancy and discovered that I had not one but six of them! So I'm putting four of them up for trade. They range from pretty big to pretty small - see the pic below. Whoever fills their name in first on the list below...
I just bought this orchid at a terrarium fair today.
The seller could not tell me much about it except that it should be perfect for a frog terrarium, needs misting twice a week and likes temperatures between 60f and 110f.
And its supposed to get small white flowers.
I know exact species would...
