I love your plants, your edwardsiana is like a model specimen, the color, shape, and teeth are perfect.

[DonH]

Thanks everyone! Looks like most people are into the toofy ones.

Heli - You're lucky enough to be getting your edwardsiana next week while the rest of us have to wait. Hope you get the color you want. Eddies are so variable in color but all of them are spectacular!

Here are some developing pitchers. I know... Not much to look at for now.

Don't you love it when you get a shipment from Wistuba and the plant has an extra growth? 2 for the price of 1!

Bookmarked.

 

[pebes]

looks like you have a big growing area there. can you show a pic of the whole arena?

 

[DonH]

I need to do a better job of arranging pots so I can make room for more plants. The lights fell from the supports a couple of weeks ago and took a big piece of the truncata with it. Fortunately, no other plants were damaged.

That happened to me with my H. minor. You know how brittle they can get, so two or three pitchers got pretty much messed up. Nice looking plants by the way.

 

[Tuuagso]

Gorgeous plants!
I'm really into toothy plants as well, but the only one I got is N. villosa, you practically have all the plants I wish I could have, lucky you!
Your eddie is such a superstar! we clearly see it's in good hands
Thanks for showing!

all pieces are "big pieces" when they get to be that size..
good looking plants as usual.

I also dropped a piece of plexiglass and cut the grow tip clean off on both the macrophylla and peltata. AAAARRRRGGGGGHHHH!!!!!!!

Thanks! The toothy ones will always be my favorite. In fact, N. hamata was one of my first Nepenthes years ago. N. lowii and its primary hybrids are a distant second.

Thanks, Travis. For size reference, the developing leaf on the lowii x truncata is about 9.5". The largest leaf on the lowland truncata (shown damaged above) is approximately 22".

Had the same thing happen to me this winter with a mouse .

That lowii X truncata is GIANT! How long have you had the 'beast'?

I've only had the plant for a little over 2 months so can't take credit for how well grown it is. French3z deserves the credit for that. It did have a good size leaf jump after coffee treatment a month ago though.
