    Cool-Weather Growth on the Nepenthes Alarm Clock

    About a year ago, I posted some pictures of my highland shelf/alarm clock. I was snapping a few pictures today and thought I'd make an update.

    Mystery sundew

    I had this Nepenthes growing in my windowsill for several months now. Almost a month ago, I noticed something starting to grow in the same pot. I let it grow and now I see the plant has tentacles. It may be a little too early to tell, but does anyone have any idea yet?
