Some pics to share
« Thread Started on Mar 1, 2008, 3:24pm »
While I was taking pics for the other thread, I thought I might as well snap these too, since the plants were all so beautifully painted with raindrops.



xtiveyi, a lower on a maturing basal, and an upper on a different plant.


mirabilis-red x (thorelli x xtrusmadiensis) - thor x TM pollen from Rainforest Carnivores, unfortunately very little seed was produced


raff 'singapore giant'
I finally managed to get my hands on this sometime last year, a great cutting from EP.



merriliana, BE. Finally getting nice pitchers on this one, but it pitchers very irregularly..does this plant require very high humidity to its tendrils to pitcher?



sibuyanensis x ventricosa-giant, 2 different plants

Lastly, a nice amp, but with some sort of infection (?) Can someone help me confirm if this is some sort of fungal infection? Have been losing quite a few leaves this way already, I am considering treating with a systemic fungicide. The leaves "dry up" from petiole outwards into lamina, instead of the other way around.



thanks

Beautiful plants sir! Cherish that rafflesiana, it's a beaut . I can't wait for the day when I can have a greenhouse in which to grows raffs, truncatas, and their hybrids.

Yoz Lam,
I've had the exact same thing happen with some of my amps before, interestingly all the affected amps were red amps. While I am not sure if there's a fungus involved(my gut feeling says no), what worked for me was to simply keep the amps more physically dry: I did not cut back watering by much, but simply shifted the plants to a location were less water would splash on the plants after rain or watering. I didn't lose a single one of mine, including one which was reduced to a mere growing tip, so I don't think you'll have to worry too much about losing the plant if you act quickly.
