I made this list up for another thread of what I grow as windowsill plants. I was curious what plants others grow this way. When I first started to grow CP's, I also thought you had to have high humidity. My first tank has water in the bottom of it all the time to keep the humidity up. The top...

Hello Everyone! I'm Nathan and just wanted to introduce myself to the forum. It's been a great source of information already as I've been reading up on topics for the past month or so. A bit about me, I'm currently 25 and live in Northern Illinois. I started growing plants when I was about...

Hello everyone Just a few pics to share. I recently built a new enclosure for my plants and words can't describe how happy I am with the result/s... First off is a pic I took quite a while back just to give an idea of the size of the previous enclosure (100x60x40cm) under a single 400W HPS...

Today I just looked at the Borneo Exotics gallery of their nep exibit, and I noticed quite a bit of highlands like N. lowii, and N. aristo, and some Heliamphora. So I was wondering if N. ampullaria could be a highland? If so, or not then is hard to grow?

Here are some photos of Nepenthes jamban, a newly described highland species from Indonesia. Discovered by Ch'ien Lee, this amazing species is in cultivation now. So far it seems to be a vigorous and easy grower and also a prolific producer of pitchers, which is good news for everyone...

Someone in the immigration thread mentioned the fundamental law of nature that says any forum discussion will eventually lead to a gratuitous Nazi reference.  Now the discussion is heading down the invasive species path and the combination reminded me of something I read in a JL Hudson seed...

I tried posting these in the picture thread, but it seems not to want to go above 30 pages... These are some amps I imported from Borneo Exotics. Not the greatest pics as the greenhouse was hot and humid and the lens kept fogging up. Anyway: N. ampullaria 'Harlequin' N. ampullaria...

Hi, If anybody wants to know more about it... A few years ago I started being worried about my N. insignis (Biak, clone from Wistuba) as in a Botanic Garden I found the same plant labeled as a hybrid. On the same day Wistuba ensured me that he had collected the seeds of his plants personally...

My name is Kris, I am in my 20s (though how far into them... well, I'm just not mentally prepared to say... :cry: ) and yes... I am a rare female in a guy-dominated hoby. I am from a rural part of Oklahoma, in the US, and I generally like long nature walks, as long as there is a minimum of...

Hi, looking at some pictures of these two species, some dubts came in my mind. I have got 2 N. inermis, of from BE and the other from an czech grower (I bought it a the EEE in Prague). However I would like to receive some opinions about this plant: is there the possibility that it is a N...

First off, I apologise for the sloppy quality of the pics. Nepenthes rajah. Whoever said it was a fussy, slow grower? I received this plant in September as a 5" "monster". Much credit goes to Simon Lumb who sent me such a healthy plant from Borneo Exotics. After a month of growth I knew it...

Hey, everyone. I spoke with Trent and Michelle Meeks (of Sunbelle Exotics) on the phone recently. They are doing fine, but may not have power for a while. The eye of the hurricane went right over them. The frame of the greenhouse remains, but most of the shade cloth was ripped away. As a result...

Hi, This spring a gave my N. viking to a friend, that species is too fast and too big for me, and it likes plenty of full sun, that I don't have. At our Italian cp annual meeting I saw the same plant with 4 flower spikes. Even if I'm planning to visit Thailand in January (including the Aopanga...

Hi Folks, I just received a box o' Neps from Sunbelle Exotics: a rafflesiana #10, a Judith Finn and a maxima Borone. Two of them are in baggies, so I have to decide on hanging pots or not. Let me preface this by saying I'd *really* prefer to hang them, as I don't have much room, especially for...

I have attempted to create a list of all the known and currently recognised species of Nepenthes.  Of course this list is by no means complete or even exhaustive, but it does give a rough idea of the number of species known.  Please let me know if I have missed any species out, or if you have...

Hi, Have decided on several lowland species to be ordering soon from BE, for an exhibition and afterward heading to my Nep corner. These were some plants I could not get from MT and also larger sized ones.However, min retail order is US$300 from BE, altogether, I should be spending US$200 +...
