Default 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.

Those are really nice plants... If you can provide their name, it will be best...

Yeah dude... cool plants. Good to see them thrive in such a small space, probably feels like home for them.

lol..it kills my eyes looking at them. Alot of them are potted in three's, so i will be needing to do some repotting as soon as i get some more equipment. They love there home, and they should, gave up my room for them lol. Regardless of there climate needs, i go grow both highland and lowland neps on that table, no croaking so far

it does, just not producing new ones right now. Like pitcher plants and vft, it has dormancy. But when you buy them at a hardware store in winter, you dont know whats gonna happen next it could be wanting to go to sleep
