Nepenthesis
Formerly known as Pineapple
Here it is, arrived this afternoon and is a little bigger than I expected. After potting and shooting pictures and as with all new arrivals I placed the bottom of a small Pepsi bottle over the top and after a few days until it gets used to the new environment the cover comes off:
Nepenthes villosa
The nep in the upper left corner of this picture is the diatas with a new pitcher.

and sadly, that is no exageration.
Plant Planter
The Most Uncreative Name in the History of Ever
Thank you and the German shop has them available again for anyone wanting one.
It's about 1.3" across and yes, I was expecting a dime size plant. Sure is green isn't it, now I will see if I can keep it that way. Next stop is for a wine cooler and I am specifically shopping for one that provides a 45 degree capable minimum. I think I found one that a 2.5 gallon aquarium will fit in so I can maintain 100% humidity without icing up the cooling chip. If it doesn't work then I will try a dorm fridge and will worry about plant size a few years from now.

hoping mine arrive the same size
It is exactly what I needed, it is in my room with ac since the ambient temps effect it's performance. Yanked the shelves out and since the 5 gallon aquarium is a little too wide and the 2.5 gallon one is too small I just sit the plants inside using glass furniture coasters to catch drips and plastic drink cups over the top. After spraying the inside of the cups and placing them over the plant all 5 go into the box and maintain 100% humidity all night in the 50 degrees of the cooler.
