Here are some pictures of my neps in June.
My highlanders are growing outdoor, enjoying the direct sunlight in the morning and in the later afternoon. All the pots are put in a big transparent plastic box and embedded in moss:
One corner. In the moss forest, can you find my N. aristolochioides, N. glabrata, N. jamban, N. mikei, N. talangensis, and N. ventricosa (or hybrid of N.ventricosa)?
Another corner. Besides the above mentioned neps, you can see my N. ampullaria (red) x N. sibuyanensis at the right bottom corner.
Here is the third pitcher of N. ampullaria (red) x N. sibuyanensis. Since the sunlight is more than that in April, this pitcher seems more red.
The latest pitcher of my N.aristolochioides. Its color more solid.
Another latest pitcher:
My N.glabrata.
My N.jamban. This is its third pitcher, but its size is as three times as the size of its first pitcher:
Guess what nepenthese produces this pitcher?
Its the pitcher of my N.talangensis. Since the daytime humidity is relative lower than before (about 40-50% at noon), to encourage it produced pitchers, I buried its tendril tip in live moss. So, the tendril tip really formed the pitcher with pure green color! Now I put the pitcher out of the live moss, allowing it receives more direct sunlight. And it starts to color up. You can see the pitchers with full color in this thread: icps.proboards.com/index.cgi?board=nepenthes&action=display&thread=3503&page=4.
Here is my N.ventricosa. It is very "fat", and so fat that I cannot see its "waist" (Did I give it too much food?) ;D But it seems a hybrid of ventricosa. It is suggested that it is N.ventricosa x N. sibuyanensis.
Recently I found there was another basal shoot, and it produces some small pitchers:
The following is one of my two lowlanders. The first is N. rafflesiana "Brunei Giant Red". It grows in a relative dark place. So the color is not very red as before. Now I put it in a more bright place, and hope it will better color up.
The last one, my little N.ampullaria. It was given by a friend. At that time, it was dying. Now it is totally recovered, and starts to produce pitchers. Here is a developing pitcher:
Hope you enjoy these pictures ;D
