Thank you lime :p Of course we all know that is not true.

More Nepenthes updates!

N. faizaliana is a peculiar plant. This pitcher has solid coloring on all its surfaces. Yet it is the only one on the plant like it.

Because most of the pitchers are like this, with the color being abruptly cut off by the digestive zone. Hmm :scratch:

I was going to enter this in the POM, but decided to enter another instead so I have a bunch of senseless glamshots of N. burbidgeae x edwardsiana 's latest pitcher. :-P

N. jacquelineae's latest, not bad, not too impressive either, though.

I love this plant, N. ventricosa x glandulifera

your spectabilis x talangensis is gorgeous. BTW did you have trouble getting your burb x edddie to pitcher for you when you got it?
 
I'm speechless :love:

Yet still you found something to say. ;) Thanks!

I know a few other growers on here who have this plant have had difficulty getting theirs to produce pitchers.

However, my plant experienced a very standard period of acclimation but after that it has been pitchering constantly. So I would say that in my conditions, it is a profuse pitcherer.

Ooh <3 very nice!!

<3 Thank you!
 
Beautiful! N. talangensis makes nice hybrids for sure... I don't find the species itself especially interesting,, but the hybrids are very nice.

Its funny, I was going to get a N. burbidgeae x edwardsiana, decided not too... wonder how it wou'dve done for me.
 
Nice! For some reason I can't get my burb x eddy to grow, or pitcher. It just kinda sits and does nothing. Doesn't grow or decline.
 
Alright, so Summer has been rough on my collection and when I finally went to tend to my terrarium, there were many tragedies to be found.

I hadn't moved this bad boy in a long, long time... As you can see. In serious need of a repotting.

It lost quite a few pitchers but still has a few good ones.

:cry:
 
That first plant is a beauty. Sucks about your dead ones! I've lost a few this past year also, sadly my favorites! Lost hamata, izumiea x tm and jamban.
 
Hahaha! I laughed at that DIY coathanger thing holding the vine up in the first pic..

I'm too used to seeing those small, shrivelled brown neps... not a fun sight :( Rest are looking great though!

Thanks!

That pole was actually an orchid flower stalk holder thing, just needed a bend and it worked for the Nep.

Those are some real gems to loose :(

I'm sorry to hear that.
 
New Nepenthes alert!

N. glandulifera x boschiana (I'm all about these glandulifera hybrids!)

It was too weedy so I instantly divided it.

DSCN6337.jpg


It should be interesting. And in the ultimate long run, I think it would be awesome to cross with ventricosa x glandulifera, if possible.

N. faizaliana (AW)

N. venticosa x glandulifera

Speaking of glandulifera hybrids, have you got a maxima x glandulifera?
Mine show quite a lot of glands at a very small size and I think they will have a lot of glandulifera in them.
I have two and would send one but I keep forgetting this isn't an Australian forum :(

I don't have one of those, but they sure look cool! This glandulifera x boschiana doesn't appear to have many glands... We'll see how it grows up.

Post some pics!

There isn't really much to see at the moment, just got through winter. They should start pitchering now the weather is warming up, I will post some once they do!
 
This is why I love getting Nepenthes from Tony:

Received N. eymae x ephippiata on 9/26
