Re: Angkau's cup
 

Wow, your red amp really ang ang one.....*biggrin2* Keep going at it!!:1thumbup:

Re: Angkau's cup
 

I like the N.ampullaria 'red' the most!!!

Re: Angkau's cup
 

Angkau's one so must be more ang mah...hehehe. Thanks.

Re: Angkau's cup
 

Casey, looks familiar or not the N.ampullaria 'red'. It's my most treasured nep amongst all my other collections.

Re: Angkau's cup
 

I like the N.ampullaria 'red' too....

Now I just sowing the seed, hope can get the red red one....:shy:

Re: Angkau's cup
 

You go man, hope all your seedlings turn out as red as mine. If not then you should contact casey and ask him where he got his.

Re: Angkau's cup
 

Congratulations beautiful plants.
N. ampulla 'red' :eek:

Re: Angkau's cup
 

OK

Re: Angkau's cup
 

Thanks, here's two more pictures from the same plant.

Attachment 3850

Re: Angkau's cup
 

nice going... hope your collection will keep on "growing"... *biggrin2*

Re: Angkau's cup
 

Thanks, the neps poison is really strong, lucky i've got myself a control mechanism(low RM) in place to prevent me from going overboard with uncontrol purchases hahaha.. But seriously i like to someday have a collection close to what you've got.

Re: Angkau's cup
 

Dont worry, the mechanism will fail soon*biggrin2*

Re: Angkau's cup
 

Casey, don't make me spend money lah.:biggrin:

Re: Angkau's cup
 

Added a few more neps to my grow list.

N. Red Leopard

Attachment 3918

N. veitchii (Hose Mountain)

Attachment 3919

N. veitchii x platychila

Attachment 3920

Attachment 3923

N.? This male plant is flowering. Will try to collect the pollen.

Attachment 3922

Got a few N.sanguinea as well from the orang asli. Will post pictures later.
Thanks for viewing.

ps: Can anyone can let me know how to reduce the size of the pictures, TQ.

Re: Angkau's cup
 

Nice new plants... thought you got a "control mechanism" ?? Guess Casey was correct.... *biggrin2*

BTW, your first plant "N. x Gothica" is actually "N. x Red Leapord" (N. maxima x ventricosa or the reverse cross... can't remember :shy:)

You know how to add your signature to the pics but you don't know how to reduce the pic size?? :laugh:*biggrin2*:laugh:

Try to reduce you pic size to 640x480 or 800x600 using any pic editor. Hope that helps.

Re: Angkau's cup
 

Hahaha...control mechanism temporarily malfuntion.

Not N. x Gothica? Did'nt expect that from YG. Maybe the staff mis-labeled the plant. Thanks for pointing that out...guess N. x Red Leopard is not bad either as it's the pitchers that attracts me in the first place.

My earlier sifu only taught me to add signature*biggrin2*. Thanks a lot:1thumbup:

Re: Angkau's cup
 

Any idea what's the last one?

Re: Angkau's cup
 

Some say miranda x fusca...Quite a common hyrbid around here

Re: Angkau's cup
 

Wah, great collection!

Re: Angkau's cup
 

Thanks Ken, hmmm..now that you mentioned it, i noticed it's shape looks quite fusca like.

Hi rhealk, thanks but my collections still so-so only:shy:. Still no match to most sifu here*biggrin2*

Re: Angkau's cup
 

Those are really nice plants!!!! Love them

Re: Angkau's cup
 

Thanks casey, there are some more in my radar:wub:. Once i managed to prints enough RM, will consider to get them. :tongue:

Re: Angkau's cup
 

Please print some for me!!!

Re: Angkau's cup
 

If you got N. Truncata black or N.merilliana to let go then i pass some to you*biggrin2*

Re: Angkau's cup
 

the n. veitchii 'hose mountain' looks so similar to n. cemerlang....a hybrid between n. veitchii x fusca.....at least to my eyes la......:bored:

Re: Angkau's cup
 

hehe... I got N.merilliana!!! But, small size!!! And not for sale... :2thumbup:

Re: Angkau's cup
 

Great Nepenthes, its very difficult to find these species here, and very expensive. But the people is having a good experience with seeds of rare nepenthes for us. *biggrin2*

Re: Angkau's cup
 

I checked Malesiana site and to my dismay i can't seem to find any difference between N. x Cemerlang and N.veitchii (hose mountain). :spinning: There's just no telling them apart...at least to my untrained eyes.

Maybe i should take more photos and post them here.

Re: Angkau's cup
 

Where you get it from and how much? Really interested to get one after seeing the 'my neps eat my wife' pictures.:sneaky:

Re: Angkau's cup
 

Hi Felipe,

Thanks, hope you can get all the neps you like in the future. We are quite blessed here as it's generally quite easy to find most variety of neps if you know where to look that is.

Re: Angkau's cup
 

Here's a few more pictures of the N. veitchii (Hose mountain) or is it N. Cemerlang? Hope you guys can help to verify it. Thanks.

Re: Angkau's cup
 

maybe the only diff is under the lid and in the inner wall of the pitcher.......n. cemerlang has red markings like n. fusca has....:confused:

http://i742.photobucket.com/albums/x...ycemerlang.jpg

Re: Angkau's cup
 

I got it from Fauzi. You can try contact him to try. :1thumbup:

Re: Angkau's cup
 

I think you could be right. The difference is in the lower lid and inner walls. From my pictures, there's no marking under the lid and inner wall whereas yours got some marking.

Thanks casey, will check with him.

Re: Angkau's cup
 

Watch out for N. merrilliana fr BE, I suspect it's not a pure N. merrilliana (can't be 100% certain either), ask Fauzi, he also have doubts.

If you really wanted to get it, wait for EP to release their seed grown N. merrilliana, I got more confidence in them.

N. x Cermelang have some dots on the pitchers and the neck of the peristome is much higher... like N. fusca.

Re: Angkau's cup
 

Thanks for the info on N.merilliana. Think i'll wait for EP to release their seed grown plants before getting one. Yea..i thought so they are more credible.


The diiference between these two plants(cemerlang & veitchii hose mountain) is so small it's hardly visible. Thanks all for the clarifications else i will still be confused by them.:biggrin:

Re: Angkau's cup
 

If that case, im wonder what it is... :crying:

Re: Angkau's cup
 

I read somewhere that BE's plants are sometimes not what they labeled them to be. Maybe it's trade secrets or an innocent mistake but i'm quite certain Truncata black is not the long lost species they claimed it to be. It could be that they hit the 'jackpot' with this one....while experimenting.:confused:

Re: Angkau's cup
 

Very nice collection.. Wish my baby veitchii will grow faster to the size of your plant... :p

Re: Angkau's cup
 

Thanks paphioboy, hopefully your baby veitchii grow fast and healthy.

Re: Angkau's cup
 

And here's the pictures of the neps i get from Fauzi.

Attachment 4092

Forgot to asked Fauzi whether the merrilliana is from BE or EP. Haiz...so absent minded lah me. From my short chat with him, i was made to understand that EP's merrilliana has got very very huge pitchers:wub:
So better place your order now if you don't want to miss out.*biggrin2*

Re: Angkau's cup
 

Its from BE

Re: Angkau's cup
 

Thanks Ken, need to book EP's N.merrilliana from Fauzi fast.

Re: Angkau's cup
 

well, my di atas also...went di atas already, others suffer from pitcher loss, overall every plant was doing great..... any chance for basal...？hehe

Re: Angkau's cup
 

n. diatas is a highland neps, so you need to provide the necessary requirement for it....or else it will not pitcher (and in some circumstances, death).....that is why i am setting up another highland terrarium.....this time the temperature is always in the 20s......the previous highland terrarium is still ON...

n. diatas and n. chaniana are the experiment subject......small pitchers for the latter.....

Re: Angkau's cup
 

Merrilliana!!!! I want.... How much is Fauzi selling? Are there any other sources for this species..?

Re: Angkau's cup
 

Nice neps Teoh. :wub:

paphioboy,
My advice regarding BE's N. merrilliana, ask around to confirm it's a pure merrilliana... I have doubts about BE's release.... :thumbdown:

Re: Angkau's cup
 

Too bad we suffered from the same fate but my other neps are doing quite well. Which one are you refering to...the basal? I got one red dragon if you're interested.

Kevyn, i did provide conditions i believed conform to HL neps needs. I place 3 plants(diatas, ventricosa & burbidgeae x edwardsiana) in my micro-terrarium and initially everything went well until one day the diatas leaves just turned brown and soft all within one day:confused: The other two are doing quite well up to now.

Please share with us your HL Terrarium set-up and how are you going to maintain the temperatures in the 20s. Are you going to use some kind of chiller or something?



Thanks Rob:blush:. Actually i did keep in mind your earlier reminder about the BE's N.merrilliana but when i see all the beautiful plants in front of me all cautions gone down the drain lah...hopeless case*biggrin2*

paphioboy,
Sorry i'm not sure about the other sources but you can order through Fauzi or direct from EP if it convenience you. Fauzi mentioned that he will be ordering by mid or end of november but there's no guarantee can get the plants we wanted as EP's plants are highly sought after and normally sold out within days of it's release.
