Just took some shots of my plants today. Just some good old common species that most of you have.

N. rafflesiana x veitchii


N. bicalcarata (Marudi)


N. rafflesiana


N. mirabilis var echinostoma new pitcher opening...


N. mirabilis x thorelii


Got this from Sungi buloh. Never really knew what it was. My guess is N. fusca or some fusca hybrid.


N. gracilis (maroon)... but with the sunlight it looks like red


Typical N. ampullaria (green speckle)


Beneath the lid of N. truncata...





N. miranda upper pitcher


N. mirabilis (stout)


N. longifolia


N. gracilis x ampullaria


N. xcoccenia (red pitchers)

Thanks Ken,

These plants are grown in the garden just beside the car porch exposed to rain and direct sunlight with just a little dapple shade from other plants in the garden.

Hi David

OoOoO i didn't pay much attention on the background surrounding.Now that i've looked at it definitly at on a garden.You tied some strings around the garden???Or was it already there so good that you can grow so many plants without people stealing them.My house condo also has a garden beside the visiters parking i wanted to put some neps there or at least thinking bout putting some there once i get many neps for now my rack has enough space.I scared uncivilised people steal hahaha.

I didn't know you were still uploading pictures so thats why i comment.Since now you're done uploading(i think) i like the N miranda upper the most because of the contrast between the pitcher and the peristrome.

Ken,

My neps are grown in my parents place (Landed property). They do not do so well in my apartment because the sun shift after a couple of months. I dare not grow them at the car park. They will be stolen or abused... curious fingers poking at the traps etc. Not gonna risk that with my little "pets" or shall I say other babies.

Hi David

I see i forgot i actually saw somewhere in the forum where you stated where you had some neps at your parents house.I think it was where you said your dad gave away your N sumatrana to somebody else...must be a heartache....if im not wrong about it.

I'm always worried to grow those neps at the garden just right under my house.But maybe one day i'll try out maybe in a few years where my collection has already grown to monster size and when i can afford to loose some common neps maybe like a N ventrata or something.

Ken,
People won't steal common colourless ventrata but the colourful ones which you will be having in a few years to come.

David,
Nice plants.That's a fusca x maxima hybrid
Love your rafflesiana x veitchii.Hope mine get as big as yours too.

Thanx for sharing!

The raff x vetchii is insanenly awesome, Love the bical... always. I used to have one, but my bical is gone together with some other plants. All victims of the great dog attack of 2008. I enjoyed that pic of the gracilis x amp and the black gracilis as well. Nice...

Hi Panenep,

Why would the dog attack your neps for no reasons..lol...Anyway maybe the dog got scratched by its fangs haha
