About that. There is another such pitcher forming on the other side of the "mountain". I'll take some pics to post tonight. That one I showed above has red teeth now!

Hi Athene,

Cephalotus pitchers are hideous...but I think they are beautiful in their own special way.

I can't wait for an entire circumference of "Stripe"!! Muhahaha....

Another mature pitcher. The lid pattern is different from the rest.

Milossula,
How did it die? I read that adults tend to suffer from root rot if their pots are not kept cool during summer.

Athene,
You will have the chance to buy one...if you want to.

I thought I should take photos of the pitchers in natural light.

Athene, the third photo is Stripe No. 2! It was a green jelly bean on the 31 Jan. Yesterday, it has developed its full colour. From the rate they are going, I'll have a dozen Stripes in 6 months! No...I can't...I'll have to repot soon if I get another six Stripes.

cindy, if you have a dozen Stripes in 6 months, you are in trouble.

Be extra careful you don't feed them after midnite!

I don't want to open the newspaper & read all about the 1st human casualty to a mutated Ceph. !

You all are right, this pot of Ceph is watered daily for the production of the little gremlins.

But this breed of Gremlins have mutated to do well in sunlight! Be afraid, be very afraid...
