I was at the Golden Gate conservatory of flowers to see the carnivorous plant display and I saw this humongous N. truncata flowering (male I think, if you zoom in on the upper left hand corner you see a flower).
The leaves are I think 2 feet across.:0o:

Hi Guys! I am a newby who just got hook on nepenthes. It all started when a friend of mine gave me seeds to grow N. truncata which I have been growing for about 3 to 4 years. First I did not know if I can grow it but slowly but surely it did and I got the hang of it. I attached some picture...
Current official weather conditions:
Temperature: 101 deg F (actual temperature is probably lower because of trees and grass and shade)
Relative Humidity: 13% (actual humidity is probably higher)
Nepenthes receive approximately 2 hours of direct sunlight in the afternoon. I mainly water...
How did you get involved with neps? Do you have a favorite? if so, what draws you to that plant?
My fascination with Nepenthes started long before I had the means to care for one. I had a VFT and a purple pitcher plant, and was reading up on their care, and in doing so, read about the care of...
I finally got around to putting organizing a bit and putting together a trade list. Please take a look and EMAIL (ellisonk001 at Hawaii dot rr dot com) me if you would like to work out a swap. USA only.
I am primarily interested in nepenthes, but will consider all reasonable offers.

Hey everyone! I'm new here, so hopefully I don't stuff up the picture uploads/attaching. I grow highland and intermediate Nepenthes in Melbourne, Aus, in a variety of conditions including outdoor, indoor, terrarium and unheated greenhouse. I'm about to share some pictures of my favorites, so...
I have read about 5 different methods of germinating Nep seeds, and have decided that I am going to give it a GO. Going to order a couple species of Lowland neps, and give it a shot. The site I am looking at currently offers Rafflesiana, Tenax, Albomarginata, Madagascariensis, Truncata, and a...
Hey dudes, I finally got my Highland Truncata today after a 2 week wait, thought I would share some photos.
Sorry if the photos are a bit fuzzy, my camera did not want to cooperate today.
The pitchers are alot more hairy/fuzzy than I expected them to be.
Im stoked to move to the t5HO...
Hello Everyone. I have decided that I need to add a couple more neps to the collection and I would like a little more help from Terraforums.
First off, I was looking at Nepenthes Truncata. However, I also found one listed under Nepenthes Pasian Truncata (tissue cultured from borneo). Is there...
This is where I'll post about my indoor collection. I decided to be so public with it because I am very serious about making it better (all within means of course!). I recently lost a great many of my older plants, though a few decade + ones survived my year off at university. As I plan on...

Hi all,
We're just starting to dabble in ebay sales for plants of limited availability at Meadowview. Proceeds will be used to help cover Meadowview's maintenance costs. Every little bit helps ;)

Hey Everyone:
I've been pretty successful at narrowing down my want list, but there are still a couple Neps on it. First up, N. bical x spect. Here's a photo of the clone that I'm looking for, but I'm certainly willing to entertain other clones:
I'm also looking for an older clone of...
Hi everyone,
We have a male N. truncate blooming in our greenhouse right now and will be collecting pollen for cold storage. We are interested in seeing what prospects there are for a suitable mate. If you are interested in making a truncata hybrid or pure species and have a female Nepenthes...
