BioGold: My Nepenthes' Saviour.
The fertiliser comes in the form of triangular prisms that smell of ammonia and rotting fish. We (Steve LaWarre (of Frederik Meijer Gardens) and I)wondered whether Nepenthes would benefit from this weak, organic fertiliser. The only concern we had was that of...
I have one larger plant each of N. ventricosa, N. sibuyanensis, and the hybrid ventricosa x mapuluensis. I also have a variety of orchids, ferns, bromeliads, etc. I am looking for species (not hybrids) that I do not have. Plants or cuttings will be considered. I am looking for something other...
Hi

Hey Guys and Gals! I have purchased N. Merrilliana and N. Bicalcarata. I read up on them at the "Nepethes University," but I wanted to run this by you folks for some feedback anyhow.
I plan to put both in LFS.
Water the Bical like an amp (very wet), and just keep the Merri damp.
Both will be in...
Hi-
My Nepenthes merrilliana is now in spike, getting ready to flower for the first time. Obviously, I'm not sure of the gender, but because a flowering merrilliana is a pretty rare occurence for most collectors, I don't want to waste this opportunity. The flowers should be open in about a...
hey ppl
I was over at the ICPS website and I ran a search for past messages of n merrilliana in the CP listserver and ran across an old thread about using laterite in CP mixes. I was wondering if anyone here has any experience with this material. I did a search on google on laterite and I think...
