Welcome, visitor from a far-away strange land.
Well if there's chocolate crumbs on the floor, Warren too

Wonderful robcantleyi :grin:

wow nice robcantlei Av.

Hope my peristome starts to flare more in the next few pitchers.

 

[Av8tor1]

tyty,
I need to find a spot under a T5 and see if the color would darken for me some.....

 

[Lil Stinkpot]

My humble submission:

I just got it two weeks ago. The second pitcher was still inflating, and this is how it came out. I see lots of potential here!

This will be interesting to see if it flares or keeps the folded back look.

Oh yes, absolutely! I can see where that pitcher is light-starved beyond belief!

Nice coloration! Great acquisition. This one definitely seems to be from a different seed batch than the originals - a real youngster.

I wish mine would actually quit pouting and grow, but it seems to have caught some sort of fungal infection. New leaves come up fine, but start forming discoloration before fully opened. Any ideas on how to treat it so I can get it moving along again?

My large is putting out some good size and color.

If Stinkpot can do it, I can too! (We got ours at the same time.)
This is the latest pitcher

Almost gettin some color on that peristome!

 

[uphwiz]

roxorboxor, youll love this nep i find it pretty easy, Ive have had mine in a highland terrarium and out in the house, and it didnt seem to make much difference. i do offer it quite a bit of t-5 fluorescent lighting.

Has anyone else noticed the little thorny crown on the lid of theirs?

I just wanted to put a lil bump on this thread. This species is what got me to this hobby & it was the first nepenthes I bought. I got it back in May for my bday and its first pitcher "under my care" is finally inflating!! countdown!

That looks like it's going to be big! Very interesting shape...

Thanks man! I can't wait to see how its going to look as it had dead pitchers when I received it. coffee has definitely helped...

 

[Jcal]

I love looking at these beauties. These were the ones that got me interested in nepenthes as well. Now only if I can fine one!

Thanks for sharing

 

[Favian]

Finally Opened!

 

[Wire Man]

That was quicker than expected, and nice peristome!

Great flared peristome! Interesting how some flare & some fold - the wonder of SG plants - genetic variability - we may or may not like what we see ...

Congrats on getting a great plant!
