well the damn 'Black Dragon' keeps getting taller and taller pitchers but they never get any bigger around....

Rattler, where the hell did you get that insanely gorgeous orchid!? My fiance really wants a blue orchid, and I've been trying my damned hardest to find one...damn man. Nice plants btw, love the flava and black dragon

 

[PHaze]

I don't suppose she wants the one by The White Stripes, does she?

Kris, picked it up at a greenhouse in Florida when we were down there awhile back......look for hybrids with Vanda coerulea in it, its a cooler growing blue flowered vanda from the Himalayan foothills

Awesome neps as always. Gotta love the orchid as well.

[rattler]

Macrophylla looks cute!Do you guys notice most H/L neps peristome are like knives?Kinda sharp!How do you guys grow highland nepenthes?

 

[TranMinh]

You poison me with your " black dragon" how long you have grow it ?

 

[rattler]

i have had it somewhere over a year.....took it a bit to settle in for me....

What kind of plant is behind the SG raf with the heavily mottled foliage?

 

[swords]

its a cooler growing blue flowered vanda from the Himalayan foothills

I was curious how you got a Vanda to grow & bloom with a macrophylla! lol

Are those raffs in the same grow area as well?

 

[rattler]

everything is together.......more the cool end of intermediate than true highland........though with it being winter it might get closer to true highland for a few months.....alot of these plants are way more adaptable than most give them credit for....my biggest issue with neps is getting them used to my ~50% humidity, not the temps.....
