tobaica

i just got a n. tobaica from petflytrap that has a basal shoot that has several pitchers already. when can the basal shoot be removed? should i wait and let the plant recover from the transportation shock before i remove it or just go ahead and remove it?

Well, the I finally went and bought the N. tobaica that I've ben wanting for like the last 2 weeks. The store had damaged it a little, but I think it's still in pretty good shape. Here's the whole plant. And here's a crappy pic of a XXL pitcher! Hope you liked em, and hope it really IS a...

With it being winter here and short days, I don't get much daylight time during the week in my glasshouse.  However, I have a day off today and happened to find that a few of my Neps are producing basal shoots. First and largest is one of my N. ventricosa: Second is a very small N...

Hi all! I recently ran across N. Tobaica plantlets for about 8$ (2 plants per pot) I'm getting 2, as they are fresh from the nursery and not yet dying from the tap water. The plants have about 10-15 tiny pitchers each and are like 2-3 inches across. Could anyone gimme some tips on these lil...

I picked up this VERY sorry looking pair from a non-cp nursery today for a couple of bucks (AU$) each and though the pictures were worthy of sharing, even if it is just out of sympathy. As you can see they are in a pretty sorry state having been prodded, poked, torn, dried, over heated, under...

here are a few pics i snapped yesterday on a camera my mom borrowed. hope you like them N. X coccinea resting on a canopy of nepenthes leaves. for some reason, this pitcher looks a little grumpy to me :roll: . probably just my imagination or the shape of the peristome. yeah yeah, my plants...

I saw this on PetFlyTrap's Page and was courious if this is easy to grow and what does it look like . Is any one growing this? Any thought are wellcome... Jim

Just got a N. tobaica red var. in. Looks great, only problem is the top portion about two leaves down is broke and came off. Put it in high humidity, temp about 78-80, med light. Anything else? The pitchers had no water, which I filled to about 1/3. Cant really think of anything else to do.will...

Do plants "feel" the wind chill factor or strictly ambient temperature?  I ask this because we are having 65 degree nights...which is fine for all of my CPs...but with a twenty knot (gusts to thirty) sustained wind, that would make the wind chill factor in the mid fiftys, which is far below what...

Well, I would like to place an order for large nepenthes from australia, but the shipping always deturs me. This is what I would get N. alata hairy N. mirabilis smilei N. truncata x densiflora (small) N. fusca x veitchii N. albo-marginata red x cinta N. hirsuta x stenophylla N. khasiana x mixta...

maybe it'll make some pitchers sometime soon here

I hope this rooting powder/fungicide stuff works, I put a basal shoot in a cup of distilled h2o mixed with it. Does anyone know from experience if this works? (its a shoot from my n. tobaica)

i just got a terrarium and put a bunch of plants in it, it has a incandescent light so it's way hotter that a flourescent.  anyways it's almost 90 degrees in there.  Is that okay for my plants? (i got a n. tobaica, sarr. Judith Hindle, a vft, a d. adelae, some d. capensis, and a p. primuliflora...

Hello again, I am rooting some N. Tobaica cuttings.  I checked today and they are starting to root.  The best is already going out, but I have two small ones left.  The cuttings are small, but already have pitchers.  I would like to trade for Neps, but will listen to offers of anything not on...

Hi, there are little plantlets coming out of my the base of my n. tobaica. I was wondering how long does it take for these to root generally? thanks.

Hi! I got this nep. tobaica this summer in Utah and I would like to know how to get it to pitcher. it has about 1 good pitcher, and the rest of the leaves have no pitchers because they had black dead ones I removed or have a vine ending in a brown hairy, tiny, pitcher shaped thing. Any...

I've noticed that lots of people grow n.tobaica and I was wondering under what conditions you all grow it. I've always had mine in a highland/intermediate tank. I've noticed that some of you have mentioned giving it lowland conditions. TSG lists it as a highland. I've just set up a small lowland...
