N. viking pics
« Thread Started on Apr 26, 2008, 10:50pm »
Actually, was just bored, so snapped a bunch 'O viking pics. Its a fairly variable plant, is easy to grow and the pitchers are nice.


This is the biggest natural grow pitcher. I say natural grown because there was a slightly larger one which got produced after the stoopid caterpillar attack destroyed two pitchers prior.


Front view


Twins! Hehe.


Another fatish pitcher


Smaller potish pitcher


Side view


Longer pitcher


Another longish pitcher, this one's quite red


My "vivid red" rod form has gone into uppers.


The peristome still very dark red, much like the lowers were.

Very nice plant .
The uppers are reminiscent of Nepenthes smilesii 's.

The plants are all different sizes, the ones in the middle are roughly the size of BE's small, but the first one is around BE's medium size. The one with uppers...well...I'm sure the vine is more than 2m long by now, its taller than me by a fair bit for sure. The pots are actually rather small relative to the size of the plants, been meaning to repot them for some time now, but...heh...lazy...lalala...
