I finally got my N. Edwardsiana yesterday! Its extremely tiny, maybe smaller than a coin.. Sg plant.. Hoping that it settles down quickly
& nicely and starts producing its spectacular signature pirchers :D
 
About a month after it arrived. That largest leaf is new since it's arrival at this stage. The plant spanned approximately 2.5" before it put out this new leaf.



Another few weeks later.



I took this pic about 2 weeks ago. The plant is now almost spanning the 6" pot it's growing in.


That emerging leaf is now just about fully extended and the developing pitcher on the right is now open. This plant was grown partially shaded by other plants but it now has much better access to the lights. I'll take some fresh pics this weekend.
 
Incredible pics guys. Glad to see it become more commonplace and you guys are doing great with it. :)<textarea id="adlesse_unifier_magic_element_id" style="display: none;"></textarea>
 
Pebes,
I'd be wary of that 'star' moss in with your big eddie. Unlike most mosses, it does not confine it's growth to the top cm (or so) of media. It will send it's very tenacious moss-roots (rhizoids) all the way through a pot's media. While thick Heli roots 'seem' to not be impacted, I had a rare sundew get completely choked out & die. Haven't tested any Neps since I don't have any I'm willing to sacrifice.... ???
