Well my entry is pretty basic, it grows in the windowsill and opened a pitcher between yesturday and today. its still pretty light in color but if it darkens ill post updates. its still small considering the overall plant is about i think i measured it 22in from leaf tip to leaf tip.

Dustin: It may be basic, but a well grown plant is still worthwhile to look at. ;)

All the pitchers in this thread have been amazing so far. Even the more common hybrids and species are looking terrific. Is this going to be a poll where we all vote, because I feel bad for whoever has to choose the winner to this one!:banana2:

Yes i will handle the CIVS voting poll as normal since i know how to set it up ;)

That is a great N. alata; quite possibly the best looking one I've seen.

i know right? the color and shape reminds me of boschiana the peristome is smaller but other than that its very similar. its become one of my favorites =]

Wow that miranda is sweet! ~thez_yo~

Thanks, yeah can't wait until it gets bigger, i more meant it seems pretty common around, definitely not a plain/basic looking nep, it's still is a very nice plant can't wait for it to get some larger pitchers i think i measured it at 22" in diameter so hopefully this summer when it can get more light, the pitchers will get bigger and more colorful too. I'll try to post an update tomorrow, looks a little darker and i think the peristome might have gotten a little bigger

Awesome plants everyone, i really enjoy seeing everyones plants

What is that strange looking substance inside that pitcher?
 
  • #39
Thats not a substance, just the inside wall of the plant. Probably the waxy one.
 
  • #40
I can't say I've seen such a pronounced waxy zone if that is what it is.
