Planted this ventrata stem cutting into ground. Took root and now pitchers are appearing.


Was given this strange looking plant by a friend. Anyone able to ID?

That is an odd looking Nep. You're kidding us right?! That's an artificial Nep right? The leaves are too thick and grows out from the stems wrong. Some tendrils are curly while the rest are straight and the place where the tendril meets the pitchers is all wrong. The top few leaves does not look like Neps leaves at all and does not have tendrils. The media, although looks like sphagnum moss, is bone dry.
