Given that I live in an apartment as large as someone's chicken coop (yeh, that was what I was told :-)) ), many of the plants at my balcony ain't as large as they should be. Despite that, many of them have got good leaf : pitcher ratio. Most of the time, the pitcher is more than half the length of the leaf. Otherwise, the plants have got multiple basal/lateral shoots.

The measurements taken were of the leaf with the newest fully developed pitcher (lid excluded).

Yup, the two northiana plants shown here are in burnt earth but mixed with some pumice (the small grey rocks) to make the media more loose.
