Ventratas? Oh, we dont see that often here. Mostly they sell alatas, common are the greens. When I was a kid, alata was my very first nepenthes and it can grow in any potting media even soil/sand.

Thank you all. Glad you all like my alata collection.

Black hirsuta is kinda small like ampullaria. They even send basals like ampullaria too. The green and reds are big like alatas.
I hope to propagate these stuff.

Yep, there are many types of alata but the true alata is the highland type. Its pretty, and can grow big too if with good humidity and high altitude.
