Picture thread. Yay.

[Capensis]

I haven't been able to post pictures for awhile since my camera broke, but my brother let me have his, and I love it. It takes way better macro shots. Here ya go!

N. sanguinea:

Highland tank:

N. spectabilis x aristolochioides:

Latest pitcher:

New, developing pitcher. I have high hopes for this one. :

My favorite Nep as of now, N. inermis x bongso:

Lastest pitcher. At first, they start as light red with a yellowish peristome, to dark, bongso colors:

N. singalana, slugging along:

Developing pitcher:

N. ramispina:

Latest pitcher:

N. ventricosa 'red'. It's pretty beastly right now, possibly my second favorite nep:

Latest pitcher on right:

N. bongso basals:

Cute little pitcher. :3:

Took a cutting of the bongso since it was declining because of the basals. Does it look ok? I did the X cut at the bottom:

Now the non-Neps:

Ceph:

Utrics take over very quickly:

D. aliciae. I love this thing:

Beautiful collection capensis, you S X A is doing very nice, the pitchers on it are huge. Everything looks wonderful, your neps or beautiful. What type of utric is that?

 

[Capensis]

Thanks Carn. It's U. dichotoma, bisquamata, and supposedly U. subulata as well.

Thanks for the comments, guys.

x-cut? tell me more!

Making an X cut (really a + cut) on the bottom of the stem of a cutting helps it root faster. There are several threads that talk about how to take cuttings, and I think on the ICPS website, too.
