[romie12321]

and i am not sure what kind it is i got it a green house the other day here r some pic can some one tell me what kind it is.

thank you for the help

Congratulations! I think it's still too small to ID, but it could be N. x ventrata.

 

[romie12321]

thank you how long untill we could get a good ID on it

 

[Capensis]

Until it produces bigger and mature pitchers. And actually, I change my mind, the leaf structure looks more like N. ventricosa.

 

[romie12321]

o ok thank you for the help

 

[Capensis]

No problem, and also, you should try to keep it drier than your Sarr. There are plenty of threads to research using the Search Function.

 

[romie12321]

ok i will look at that

 

[Ant]

I think it is ventrata aswell, it matches my new basals on mine nearly to the dot.

 

[SirKristoff]

It could be either at this point. my guess would point twords N. x Ventrata as well. though it could easily be Ventricosa as well. the wingless pitchers are a deffinite clue. Wait till it gets a little older and we will be able to give you a better guess

i'd place my bet on ventrata over ventricosa. i'm no nep expert so dont take my word for it though.

 

[romie12321]

thank you all for the help

im saying ventricosa. not enough alata in there for a ventrata. The lid is the shape of my young basals on my ventricosa, and the leaves match almost perfectly.

I'd say ventricosa also. Time will tell
