Let's dedicate a thread to the smaller, less flamboyant neps

Bellii x Aristo... one more added to my wishlist.

The lowers on Vogelii is amazingly narrow, hopefully that qualifies it for the delicate nep category

 

[chibae]

They most definitely qualify, beautiful pitchers

 

[cpbobby]

only have 2 atm

northiana....

crimson ampy....

Nepenthes xiphioides is a diminutive species I really enjoy:

Chers,
KPG

 

[hcarlton]

That thing's got some major teeth! It's the one plant out of that trio of gymnamphora-complex plants I don't have yet.....

 

[Red Lowii]

Speaking of gymnamphora, here's another one to add to the pile

 

[Wire Man]

N. northiana isn't a small species at all. It gets massive, and is definitely flamboyant. I'll post some of my little ones later.

Nepenthes campanulata... gotta be one of the smallest and simplest neps

Beginning with an almost mature-sized cutting, in 2.5 yrs it has flowered three times but only grew a few inches taller.

January 2011

August 2013

It's very generous with producing basals too, so should it eventually outgrow its allotted space, the main 'vine' can simply be cut back to restart all over. In 2.5 yrs the single cutting pictured above has produced more than 20 basals

 

[pmatil]

Wow I wish I had a Campanulata some day...

 

[carbonetc]

N. spathulata x glabrata puts out some very classy little pitchers. For a few days they're very pale, and then the markings start to redden up.

 

[jgivs]

Truncata getting progressively larger

 

[divaskid]

I have a bunch of small ones, but this one is definitely my smallest! Pitchers are less than an inch tall

 

[vdub804]

here's an intermediate pitcher on my Ventricosa x Pectinata

and Ventricosa x Dubia

 

[mylesG]

why is there a truncata in this thread

 

[Whimgrinder]

why is there a truncata in this thread

Isn't N. truncata one of the "smaller, less flamboyant" species??!

 

[Red Lowii]

Yeah Myles, can't you tell that's clearly the dwarf form of truncata

 

[RL7836]

Took a quick glance through this thread earlier - expecting to see it filled with pics of N. argentii. After all, what's smaller & less flamboyant than N. argentii?

To quickly end this miscarriage of omission, here are quick morning snaps of an AW clone...

.... nestled in the leaves of N. izumiae


.... and sunken in a sea of moss


The younger BE clone is buried under a cluster of other Neps at the moment - so no current pics.

Is no one else growing this species?

Sadly, I do not have N. argentii yet. I'm watching for it, but it doesn't appear to be available stateside. :-( Beautiful plant, Ron.
