Stunted Neps = Bonsai Neps - sharing some pics

Given that I live in an apartment as large as someone's chicken coop (yeh, that was what I was told LOL ), many of the plants at my balcony ain't as large as they should be. Despite that, many of them have got good leaf : pitcher ratio. Most of the time, the pitcher is more than half the length of the leaf. Otherwise, the plants have got multiple basal/lateral shoots.

The measurements taken were of the leaf with the newest fully developed pitcher (lid excluded).

N. albomarginata (green) - 5" leaf : 2.5" pitcher




N. khasiana - 2" leaf : 3" pitcher




N. mirabilis - 5" leaf : 2.5" pitcher




N. hookeriana - 3" leaf : 2.5" pitcher




N. reinwardtiana - 2.5" leaf : 2" pitcher




N. maxima x ventricosa - 4" leaf : 2.5" pitcher




N. kuchingensis (BE) - 3.5" leaf : 2.5" pitcher

We have a nick name for Cindy, but we've not been using it lately. We call her the "CP Queen".

Cindy,

Your hooker picther is huge in comparison with the plant and leaves. Love it! I can't help but think of a coconut tree when I look at your N. maxima x ventricosa... Haa, haaa, a coconut tree with elongated coconuts growing from the leaves. Like the nice clean green on your albo.

Great plants Cindy.
