Default Re: LJ_Tan - Nepenthes

what i have done for the vikings are, i put all the pots close to each other in a tray, and i let the pitchers sit in the gaps so that very minimum light will shine at the pitchers.

I have tried another method b4 and it works also, expose the whole plant to make the leaves red, by having the pitcher sitting in the pots, covered by its leaves, then i wil move them to shaded place. Then you wil get red leave + red pitcher.

yes, i purchased 2 plants 'same batch' from cbkhoon.

if i understand correctly, you meant 'both plants has different form of pitchers'
And now its getting intense red coloration on the pitchers, and you like it....

I will put other nep when it was in "Red"....
I still waiting for other on the new nep

you will post other pitcher's pictures when it turns red,
and expecting more pitchers forming from the plants..
