I was just curious as to if anyone has ever noticed if male and female nepenthes grow at different rates? I know of other plants who breed with one being male and the other female grow at a different rate than the other and perhaps could be a way to show the difference other then when they...
Lots of flowers this summer! I had one female and 4-5 males flowering at the same time. The female is a N alata x maxima from Jeremiah Harris that I have had for more than 7 years (an old pic is linked on my growlist). I have at least 80 seed pods on 2 spikes; I have harvested 1 spike and the...
My male N. boschiana (Click link at left to see a photo) is coming into flower in the next few weeks and I anticipate having enough pollen to spread some around. Priority will be given to anyone with a female boschiana, of course.
Hi everybody! I just broke down my outdoor aquarium, and have lots of fish that were born in it over the summer. These are not a commonly seen species in the hobby, and hardcore Killie enthusiasts are rather dismissive of it because of its ease of breeding. The fish are Rivulus cylindraceous, a...
I could have sworn I made a thread here, but oh well.
There is a post in the trades section but I'm posting here as it is Nepenthes related specifically as well:
I have pollen currently available for N. 'Miranda' and N. x mixta, and in around a month or so my SG N. (inermis x singalana) x mira...
Hey guys it's me again.. You still remember my drunken snake dealer? The one who brought a bag of vipers, literally? Well lucky for me he hasn't forgotten about me during my 4-month absence.
He had a deal someplace nearby so he decided to drop-by my new petplace and give me a welcome home gift...
Jeremiah Harris and I decided to check out the Harvard Museum of Natural History yesterday. There is a vast mineral collection on display as well as an array of stunning fossils, skeletons and Victorian era taxidermy specimens from around the world. In this diverse collection of natural wonders...

California Whipsnake (Masticophis lateralis) (Not a bug, I know):
Male European Wool Carder Bee (Anthidium manicatum)...
Snakes!
I believe I have yet to post about my own pets here, so I decided it was time. I own 3 corn snakes currently, ages being at 4, 6, and 8 with the pics, respectively.
The first is my male, Starfire, a typical amelanistic (or albino) het for anerythrism. He was a rescue, a friend's cat...
My male N.veitchii "Pink" is starting to flower. Pollen should be ready in a month or so if any of you have any female plants that will be ready around the same time. I would prefer the pollen going to another veitchii of any provenance but interesting hybrids would be alright too. Just looking...
I know I have talked to a good amount of TF'ers about Orb weaver spiders, and many of them
having a pretty fond interest in the spiders. Last night during a large rainstorm, I decided
to check the shed like I usually do, and check how the large orb weaver is doing, and
take some photos.
(I will...
Hey guys! Yep, I'm still on vacation lol..
Just got this photo today as an update from my petkeeper. It's my Godzilla (An adult female sailfin lizard) with my keeper's son. Awww!!!
See you soon my beloved babies! :D
So what're your babies up to?
In some version of the words of lil hokie in another great thread: Post your Super Awsome liverwort pics here. These things are too cool and I'm hoping if you have these things growing on purpose or by accident anywhere you all would hit us with a pic. Lets get this going...
Also I've not...
Post your polllen collecting, preservation, and sending techniques.
I am currently collecting and desicating polllen from this truncata.
Looking for female flowers ASAP:poke:
I have an excess of seed from a cross I made last winter (and harvested a few days ago), so I am giving away two packets of seed.
The cross is N. maxima* X [(lowii X veitchii) X boschiana]
*(ID is vague...was sold to me as maxima but may be a hybrid)
Photos of the parents, female first...

My plant's second flower stalk has gone brown, so I have more seeds to get rid of just like the previous giveaway.
- female: N. Anubis (spathulata (thorelii x densiflora))
- male: N. Mixta (maxima x northiana)
I'm really not set up for sowing nepenthes so the seed is free for the taking, on...

A Southern Toad:
A Chorus Frog of some kind, not...
I'm looking for some species pollen to cross with my female N.spathulata, N.aristolocloidies and N.truncata "pasian". PM me if you are interested in a 50/50 seed split, all offers will be considered. Thanks. :)
