This is how the pitchers looks like before it stopped putting out pitcher:confused:. I think this should make some interesting hybrids and if anyone is interested please let me know.

Do you have the pics of it's lower pitchers before it stop pitchering? I might be interested. :smile:

It's normal to see nep stop pitchering when it's about to flower, this may last up to 6 months or more depending on how fast it recover from flowering before it start to pitcher again :sweating:. If that plant got basal, the basal will still continue to grow and pitcher normally. :smile:

So any potential nep breeder should bear in mind if you want the nep to flower, be ready to sacrifice to have neps without pitchers for quite sometime... :crying:

Oh... you naughty naughty*biggrin2*

Rob, unfortunately that's the only picture i have of this plants before it stop pitchering. There are at least 3 pitchers in the picture above, so you can visualise how the whole pitcher looks like*biggrin2*. All i can say is that the pitchers were huge. This should make some interesting hybrids. If everything went well, i will collect the pollen and send most to you.

My itchy hands cut off the basal and it fails to root:crying: before the plant stop to pitcher and begining putting out smaller leaves and flower.

I regretted to let my campa flower, which ends up in a loss loss situation where there are no pollen while the plant takes almost forever to recover...

hi AT,

may i ask, how tall is the basal shoot? i have tried on the hardy species and it roots without any help from rooting hormone etc...(but provided with high humidity level) have not tried on the intermediate hybrids.....now you said that it fails on you.....i think twice now (sanguinea hybrid)....if the basal is too old (with woody trunk) i think the percentage is quite low compares to the softer basal (but again prone to rot)

any tips, Robert?:smile:

wow...this one look irresistible.....

Hi Kevyn,

It's a small basal with 4-5 leaves and still soft. Precisely... it started to turn black and rot. In my case, i think it could be the higher humidity or that i water them too much that causes it's demise. I found out later with my other cutting it's best to just chuck them at a corner with sufficient light and not disturb them at all......90% rooted:spinning:
