Some new Nepenthes, et al.

[Peatmoss]

I received a nice shipment of Nepenthes and a few epiphytes today.

I was very pleased, the plants were packed in huge plugs of live sphagnum, so they should pretty much start growing immediately.

In 6 months I will be able to offer up some competition in POTM.

N. sanguinea:

N. rajah petiole:

N. petiolata:

Some kind of bromeliad, a cultivar, it was free:

N. rajah!!! So excited about this one. It is a BE tc clone:

Another bromeliad, "fireball hybrid" can't remember the genus:

A Tillandisa, montana "purple form" :

I also got a very small truncata "paisan" and a bunch of other Tillandsias and an Utricularia dichtoma. I arranged the tillies to grow along the back wall of my setup and hopefully they will look good there.

Sorry for the bad pics, they were handheld.

Nice plants! Congratulations!

 

[Nepenthesis]

Dahh, I need a rajah...

Woohoo that is so nice! Petiolata is definitely and under-appreciated and under-rated plant. Grows lickety-split and is downright gorgeous. What's not to love about this!

Very nice! the rajah looks great

 

[Peatmoss]

Thanks!

The petiolata is exciting, I thought it looked like a good plant, and it has fairly big pitchers. I can't seem to figure out where the name came from though.

The rajah is also great, it is small but I am sure it will do well.

Very nice. I like the sanguinia. The rajah is nice too. I hope to get one one day.
