sounds like basal shot, what is the aggregate size of your truncata?

The Leafs are bigger than my hand so more that 7 inches and the last pot was about 5-6 inches but a new one is growing and looks like it will be bigger
One more thing on average how old does a Truncata have to be to flower?

From what I heard, it takes a long time for Truncata to flower(about 8 years old from seeds) but every one will not have the same timing as we keep ours in different condition, no one knows

Ok that's cool so I have about 4 more years to go lol
But will I be able to cut that lil plant off and root it or would that hurt the plant and if I cut it off could i graft another plant to the cut part.
have you ever heard of anyone a grafting on another plant to the cut?

Nepenthes grafting is an interesting subject and yes it can be done according to this site:
http://carnivore.ic.cz/fotky/pokusy/...g/default.html

I may want to try if i have enough material to work with in the future. So please keep us posted if you decided to go ahead with it.
