N. ventricosa

[Cocanut]

Hey hey,

So i bought these plants a few month ago and man have they improved. These are my first carnivorous plants and i must admit i'm alreay additived and want more and more.  

 When i first bought them i had no idea what type Nepenthes they were, but after e-mailing the place where they came from they comfirmed that it was a N. ventricosa... So yeah it kinda sucks tho that i have no idea where i can buy more carnivorous plants here in london ontario. But anyway here are some pics i took last night.. Sorry if they are too big..

i have a strange feeling that PiranhaPlant is gonna say ventrata

 

[PiranhaPlant]

It looks kinda like my nep which was labelled as a ventricosa 'red' but still not sure. Is the first pic a upper pitcher or an intermediate?

 

[Cocanut]

yeah i didnt think it was too, and to be honest i really dont know if they are... but i'm going by what the nursery told me unless anyone else tells me otherwise..

i beleave its an intermediate baby pitcher

I think instead of N.ventricosa, it is N.ventrata.

 

[Cocanut]

N.ventrata eh... yeah i saw pics of that type of plant a few month ago.. also thinking that it was that type.... is that a lowland or a highland??

 

[PiranhaPlant]

It's a highland

 

[Cocanut]

ahh thanks, i wish i had a lowlander cause man my plant room can get very hot with all the fans and lights on. BUT I LOVE this plant and would never change it.. however, i'm not going to change much on how i have them growing cause they seem to be growing really really well with the temps i have them in... but its odd how even tho they are not getting cooler nights, that they are growing this fast

Look's like ventrata, whitch is also a nice plant as well ventricosa.

.. Good luck to you ..

 

[Gemini528]

Ohh.. ventrata. It's ok. I'll just look up information for ventrata then, but I don't think there's much difference between the two. Is there?

 

[TyFone]

You dont have to look any info up..
Just keep the soil moist. humidity about 50%.
Good light and temperatures around 25 C (77F)

Oh, too bad I didn't read this earlier; I already did, but the information I found was pretty similar to what you said. Thank you.
