A Few Nepenthes

[Crissytal]

All are grown in lowland conditions. A terrarium sitting on an AC vent is being used for some of the more 'difficult' highlanders, though for the past two weeks temperatures have been consistently in the 80s. Appropriate highland conditions have never been achieved even when the AC was running all the time.

Very nice collection of Nepenthes the N.marbled dragon is nice and the little seedlings are cute I hope they grow up well for you and very nice N.hamata too.

Love the spectabilis! And how old are those seedlings(from initial germination)?

Also, just a note since we usually see individual specimens in pic, is it possible to get a wide-angle view of your whole setup? Definitely curious.

Looking very nice some real jewels to be.

Thanks everyone for the comments .

The seeds were sown on 6/30 and took between 3-5 weeks to germinate. I still have some popping up three months later.

Here are some pictures of my setup.

The first is a picture of my Nepenthes on pebble trays on my grow rack.

Ditto that thought mine isn't as leafy as some I've seen up on the forums but size still going up and it's now in it's final pot 20 gal monster pot, and transplanted quite well.

are you growing ampullaria as a highland?

 

[Crissytal]

No, all my highlands are growing as lowlands.
