Some Cephalotus pics to share

[cindy]

Nothing spectacular but just wanted to show the rate of growth over 4 months.

November 2008
I imported some Cephs with one-inch rhizomes for sale. Here is one example in a thumbpot.

March 2008
I kept several plants in the thumbpots for myself. These now need to be further repotted into 5" pots from their 3" pots.

Plant 1


Roots are appearing from the base of the 3" pots.


The plants are forming adult pithers.


Plant 2




Plant 3




--------------

This cutting had a rhizome about 1.5" long last November.


How it looks like now. The largest pitcher is 4cm (>1.5") tall.


A pic of a potential prey.

I like your pics. The pitchers look well formed and hungry! What soil mix do you use?

[cindy]

Hi Taylor, the plants are in a peat, pine bark and sand mix.
