new pitchers
[IMG][/IMG]
diatas var. bandahara spectabilis(lowii x ventricosa) x lady pauline spectabilis(lowii x ventricosa) the plant in the back left is spathulata clone 2. the one up front to the right is ovata, which made a ridiculous pitcher lady pauline pitcher nest of cape sundews, recently repotted. the purple pitchers are mcfarlanei(aristolochioides x ventricosa squat)also judith finn to the right starting with the plant with the crystal going clockwize, singalana, subuyanensis x hamata, ventricosa squat, sanguinea, ampullaria harlequin, and pot with dome in the middle of them is drosera kennylii these last 3 photos show signs,maybe, of why and how nepenthes sanguinea got its name in the first place. In my case,these plants produce sooo much necter, it seeps down the pitcher and usually forms a buildup where the wings meet the tendril. The thing is though is when this necter sits a good 4 weeks or so, it turns deep red, and hardens into a sap! I can really chew on it as if i picked some pine sap out in the woods, not that hard, but u get the point. Sanguine means blood red, and the plant looks pretty suspicious with 'blood' runnng down its mouth. Last edited by Vincent; 6th January 2010 at 08:44 PM. |
