I haven't been able to post any pictures before, these are my first! ;D (My dad took them. Give him the credit.) N. x ventrata. Bought as a 6 inch high plant in 2002. -VIGOROUS-  N. x Rokko(?). Bought from California Carnivores as an unnamed hybrid in 2006, only just started growing again.  N. Sanguinea and baby deformed n. ventrata in a pumice rock. N. x ventrata bought in 2004, N. Sanguinea bought in 2001. This N. x ventrata dose not grow as fast as the other. It also does not produce pitcher lids. None of my plants have ever done this. Anyone know why?  N. x Puna! A first of its kind, bought from a flower show only a month ago.  The whole plant.  Happy Halloween! |

Your Nepenthes look nice. I just plain suck at growing them.

Nice,when I go back to hawaii to work with my dad I will take home a few large lava rocks then try growing nepenthes in them  I am stuck with small 4 inch tc clones but I am getting 3 hybrids from seed each different from Kim Magnum in Hawaii that have some nice size. |

Awesome Puna! I wanted to get one so badly, but they were just a bit expensive for me. Yours looks pretty amazing.

Thank you all for your complements! ;D I don't usually get complements, because very few people ever see my plants.

your deformed ventrata is actually a TC mutant. thats how its going to be for life. had one for a while then traded it off. it was very interesting in that it made a bajillion growth points and its strange pitchers. nice plants. that sanguinea hasnt shown its true potential yet. just you wait i have a monster 8 inch pitcher....and it hasnt even opened yet!

Hikenyura, if your plants are not doing well, consult with the growers!

Well my plant are healthy, they just don't have any amazing pitchers. Everyone of the have healthy green leaves ,or one/two pitchers except my ventricosa(I think I see one about to form) and alata (yes, 2 easy ones. And i got my sanguineas, truncatas, plus a mikei and singalana to pitcher).

It's the small one in the third picture. It has no lids.

That's a N. sanguinea and that pitcher is just drying out, so it has no lid.
