Adventure Time Nepenthes Series! (Ongoing Thread)

[mcmcnair]

So myself and Wireman are fans of the television show adventure time and we are working on creating a series of cultivars based off of the characters from the show. So far we have Princess Bubblegum, the Lich, Cinnamon Bun, and Lumpy Space Princess.

Graham and I will update this as we find new plants to fulfill the characters. We might have Jake the dog but we want the plant to grow out a bit first. Thanks for looking!

 

[mylesG]

you two been smokin the good stuff huh

 

[Api]

I'm all for this man. If I get any plants that might fit the characters I'll tell you pronto. This is awesome!

 

[Wire Man]

I'm just weird, and had a moment of inspiration a few weeks ago.

 

[kevnep]

Vent x tm would make a great finn. And something like sibu x truncata for jake.

You guys are mean picking on poor fusca fusca is no lich id say aristolochioides is the lich. I would suggest sabre dark cherry for ricardio

 

[lance]

Haha I thought I was the only one that liked this show! Very cool idea!

 

[Wire Man]

I have a very yellow veitchii with a purple interior that might work for Jake. If I can I'll cross it with sibuyanensis. I know what we want to do for Marceline, and it's going to be big.

 

[Api]

Big as in size?

 

[Wire Man]

Leaf span and pitcher size.

 

[Api]

Can't wait!
