Default Pics during free time

Hey guys just some pics during some of my free time so the dates are different.

Start off with N.Viking




Hard to believe this pitchers are formed one after another..


Reinwardtiana


Hookeriana


Dyeriana


Mirabilis pink....Should be good for breeding eh?


"Thorelii" still to young to ID...


Rafflesiana


Red dragon...


This pic makes me believe more that it is bokerensis x truncata


Basal pitcher


Its flower which i suspect is female...Can anyone ID??


A couple of new guys which i got from piscesilim




Ampullaria with basal but probably not in the photo


Lastly northiana


Thats all

Ken

Don't overwater it. Too much water causes smaller pitchers and rather deformed leaves. Otherwise, amps grow fine and are fairly hardy.

i was mixing it 60 sphagnum moss and 40 perlite, so far the pitcher that produce look smaller....will i have large pitcher with low humidity? it was placed at place with less air circulation, receiving bright sunlight from 12 till 3pm, other time will receive lower intensity of light....

nepenthes need some time to acclimatise to new environment... At that time, pitcher will be smaller... You will get bigger and bigger pitcher on the process (with the condition, they are at right environment)

Just give sometime for new plant... Be patient...

Not much to do. Plenty of watering once a day and the occasional black ant into pitchers. My plant came about a foot tall 3 years ago. Had been growing well since, even had to cut of tall vines a few times. Using only sphagmum moss.

but the shoots that appear from the on the basal turn black...still not sure what happen to it...
bad news, the new puppy in my house get interested in the pitcher and bite it, all pitcher is either just left a bit or entirely pulled out, had punnished it by keep hitting it until my fingers so pain, so hate it!! why it just do not listen even though i already warned it for more than 9times.....
Got one left, the damaged one had put it in a plastic...hope will be recovering soon...:un sure:
