These three Neps used to be tankmates, at one time. :) And I've had them all two years to the day today.

Hi guys,
I figured I make a new thread on this issue that I am facing.
In january..I went away on a vacation for 7 days. I had made arrangements for watering and misting them, but unfortunately, they failed. By the time my parents managed to visit my apartment after 5 days of the 7, the fans...
Here is an update on some of my coffee fed Nepenthes. These plants were purchased from CZ Plants in May of 2008. They were all potted up into five inch diameter plastic pots, and were initially grown together in a 16" x 8.25" terrarium. Once the N. rajah outgrew the terrarium it was moved...
Here are a few photos of some of my favorite highland Nepenthes.
Nepenthes jacquelineae
In my opinion one of my hardest Nepenthes to photograph. The first few photos are of a upper pitcher which are a beautiful yellow and red and are suspending nicely making it easy to get a great shot...
It's been a long, hard winter without pitchers. They're finally getting enough sun to pop some out and I'm so excited!
baby hamata just opened it's first pitcher for me (if you look real close you can see peristome teeth!)
ampXsib just opened up
same with the ventXtrusmadi

Well, I too have succumbed to the lure of java for my Nepenthes -- this after talking to a number of people whom I respect, both on this forum, and some others who have also sworn by it. Like those before me, I have simply poured cool coffee (made with RO water) through the media, as I would a...

Well after finally getting a good look at my supposed N. macrophylla (seedgrown) i looked at its peristome, excited to see teeth, and boy is there teeth for such a small plant....BUT the pitcher wasnt the right shape, is realllllly dark red, and when the pitcher fully revealed its peristome, has...
A couple of questions come to mind that I've been wondering for a while...
1. Is there such a thing as a lowland plant that tolerates and grows well in minimal humidity without a lengthy acclimation process? I have never ever had a lowland plant do well for me (except hirsuta) because of my...
I'm looking to buy two or three new nepenthes. This winter has been extremely mild and by mild I mean in the forties, with multiple inches of rain a day and gale force winds. But not freezing! so I want some plants.
I am thinking about getting two highland plants that will be in a...

Here are some pics of a couple of toothy smilin' N. macrophylla clones.
This first one is of a clone I got from CZ Plants last year,
This next pitcher is from a Wistuba clone that I also acquired last year.
And this final pic is of the two N. macrophylla clones side by side, with the...
I always thought I'd always pick a nice N. macrophylla over a N. edwardsiana any day, but I maybe changing my mind:

Hiya Fellow CP'ers
Recently I purchased what I thought was a N. macrophylla, but looking at its newest pitcher, it is obviously not.
I have contacted the person who sold me this plant, but he has not yet responded. I believe he had sold me this plant on good faith, but it unfortunately is one...
