My turn to brag (ventricosa x TM)

[srduggins]

Yeah, yeah, all I do is post pics of my plants, sue me (well not really).

I'm really liking this wide, nearly flourescent green model:

but this red, lowii-like version is nice too:

Just hanging with a maxima x TM (on the left)

and the TC version (Sabre)

*TM = xTrusmadiensis

The peristomes on those are wicked Great color variations there!

 

[BurntSnow]

Those are some wicked plants, dude!

 

[lizasaur]

Woweeee!

 

[thez_yo]

OMG I love the green one! You don't usually see them in that color.

 

[limeslide]

Lovely plant!
The peristome looks like a lot of rings placed next to eachother, neat! I really love this plant's pitchers!

 

[Dodge]

Wow, nice.

But i am still a "RED" junkie... love the red ones

 

[uphwiz]

more please,

i wouldn't call it bragging , if your like me most around me don't understand the addiction to these cool plants, so this is a great place to share and see others successes, and gather info, so brag on if you want to call it that.
and we'll enjoy the pics.
i like them all but would like to try one of the green ones, its really cool.

 

[ellisonk001]

Certainly worth bragging over; thanks for sharing!

 

[nightsky]

Post and brag away. There can never be too many pic threads. I love to look at cp pics. I really like the first pitcher, it's amazing.

 

[srduggins]

Thanks everybody. Here's the lower pitcher from "that green one":

And another promising clone:

and Sabre made a few more buddies:

Those are all great looking!

Do you grow yours as highlands?

 

[srduggins]

Pretty much. I grow them in a greenhouse, so they are somewhat subjected to southern California conditions. I do have a swamp cooler, but no heating. So they don't get enough light/heat in the winter, but they survive and even manage to grow slowly. Winter temps are usually upper 40s to low 70s, but can approach freezing and even get a couple days of frost in the front yard (only once in the back yard in the 20 years I've lived here - no greenhouse at the time and some very unhappy plants). It usually drops down at least into the mid 60s at night during the summer, except for the hottest few weeks.

 

[srduggins]

I just like this picture of a lower pitcher from one clone and the upper pitcher from another. the upper pitcher is actually bigger in this case.

 

[CPsam]

cant wait till my vent x TM gets uppers!

 

[dashman]

Mine is hanging in there. I have resorted to putting my highlands and helis into an ice filled cooler each night since we have had above 70 nights for months it seems. My vent x xTM is too big to fit so it is looking rough at the moment. I don't recall having this problem last year. Sadly, I am starting look forward to fall.

 

[pappydew]

Beautiful pitchers!

 

[nightsky]

Gotta love TM hybrids. Truly among the best imo.

 

[jbradt]

Great pics. Very cool plants!

 

[srduggins]

Nearly 3 weeks without another picture!!!! I'll have to remedy that. These are from the same plant.
