Very cool pics, thanks for taking the time to post them. The B52 is a beast... mine is just now starting to wake up and really take off. And I love your D. venusta... still need to get that one.
 
Great plants. Love the sanguinea. Your B52 has great color. For some reason, I can't get mine to color up all that well, no matter how much light I throw at it. PS - Send me a hamata cutting ;)
 
I agree with everyone, very nice plants! Thanks for sharing them :).

What are your nighttime temperatures for the Hamata?

Honestly I have no clue, there is no thermometers or anything on my tank but I imagine it gets a night time drop in temperature.

HMM can't get it to color up? maybe it is not a b52 I bet somebody selfed a b52 and grew the one you have from seed and gave it cultivar status. To be a real b52 it should have been propagated by cuttings or tissue culture.
I can't afford to send you a cutting of hamata since I only have one and if I ever want to offer it for sale/trade I need a couple plants.
When it is larger I am going to periodically slice off the growing tip becuase it contains a hormone which suppresses basal growth and hopefully I can get the cutting to strike, if not I can always seperate the basals after they reach a certain size.

Very nice coloration on all of your plants!
Do you grow with lights or the sun?
Click to expand...
I grow all my sarracenia and flytraps with the sun and D. capensis red, my nepenthes that I grow in full sun are ventricosa, sanguinea, spectabilis, HL truncata, N. 'gothica' and ventricosa x maxima.
I have two sanguinea and the one pictured in this thread is under two 40 watt flourescent lights but they are about 8" or more above the plant but as close as I can get it.
 
Stop showing off your hairy ugly hamata! :-)) Just joking, personally I think all hamatas are ugly, but all your plants look great and healthy, I just don't like hamata for some reason.

SHUN THE NON BELIEVER!

John, does the Hamata grow under fluorescents too? I remember asking you this in the past, but I can't remember what you told me.
 
yeah the hamata is under flourescent, not even plural! I might double it's lighting later give it two 15 watt lights but I have heard it is sensitive to change in lighting I heard one guy had his plant shriek when he replaced his light bulbs.
