Some Ceph pics
« Thread Started on Oct 31, 2007, 10:33pm »
Here are some of my plants to show the variation in the pitchers. Honestly, I have no idea why they look different but my friend says pitchers of different forms can be found on a plant at the same time.

The pitcher with thick teeth.




The pitchers with narrow teeth.




The pitcher with dark red and narrow teeth.








No teeth...just kidding.


Another plant...


This pitcher was older - short and chubby


This pitcher is new! Narrow and long.

Following the guru's suggestion, I repotted my Cephs. I was supposed to overturn the pots, fill the bottom of each pot with extra 2-3cm to raise the mound...so that the Cephs sit nicely above the edge of the pots. It wasn't easy for me 'cos my hands are small and each time I overturned the pot, the media fell off!

It made photographing them easier.

Some more photos

Ceph seedling from CZplants. Been with me since April last year. VERY VERY slow growing.


Count the "Stripes"!! Hint: Study the lids






Pitchers of plants from Southern Carnivores. All cuttings of 3-6 years old. Been with me for between 2-6 months.


















Sometimes, an odd looking pitcher would appear.

Hongrui, it's all thanks to T5 lights. But them being on the rack also means I have to keep an eye on mildew. I nearly lost many of them last month.

Willing to share the lighting you provide for the plants? They look very very cute.

Hi Kianliang,

Some of my plants are under 39W T5 lights for 12.5 hours, others are at the balcony receiving sunlight. Because the weather has been cool and gloomy lately, all I get for plants at the balcony are dark green pitchers. The ones under T5 gives the nice colouration.

I repotted some of my cephs into ceramic pots which are supposed to be a little cooler. The plants are just starting come back after a mildew attack so this is a good time to transplant them.
