    Looking for mature size VFTs

    I am looking for mature Dente VFT or other giant VFT, except B-52, in the San Jose area for a school project for my son's project. I prefer to step by and pick it up because i will need them within the next 2 weeks, so no time for shipping and recovery. All I grow are nepenthes so these are the...

    In vitro shoot tip culture of N. campanulata

    Here's the result so far of my recent attempt at propagating N. campanulata by culturing the shoot tips in vitro. I used small basal shoots as explant source and referred to these links for disinfection methods: http://icps.proboards.com/thread/4891...

    Growth Tips Dying?

    I noticed yesterday that the growth tip on my N. lowii x campanulata was turning black. After freaking out, I hoped for the best -- at least I could resort to the basal, right? Just five minuted ago I found the basal's growth tip turning black! I know the person I got it from is gonna see this...

    Ventricosa not thriving?

    Hi guys, I joined the forum to ask about my ventricosa (probably, could be ventrata). I've had it for a few years; love it, will get more neps when I have the space. It's grown from a tiny home depot plantling to a sizeable plant, with approximately equal sized vining and basal stems. Until...

    Why do some wistuba Heli never seem to go beyond junvenile stage?

    Why do some wistuba Heli never seem to go beyond juvenile stage? I have been growing Heli from Wistuba since 1997 but have found some clones (for me at least) never progress well. My hispida never did and got smaller. Yet another clone from elsewhere moved to adult growth quickly. My 10 year...

    Basal Monster, or at least fast producing

    I have a N. red leopard that seems to put all of it's energy into producing basals rather than pitchers. Over the years I have cut and donated many basals off of it. This summer I have cut three basals off leaving only the main plant, a two inch basal and a green nub. Well now the two incher...

    Miranda needed a haircut...

    So my N. miranda needed to be divided badly. Figure I would share with the class. I dont have alot of live LFS so i used some dormant stuff. The basal cuttings after all was said and done: Ohh and my ventrata cuttings finally took root! I was alittle worried about them. Let me know what you...
