U. quelchii "Auyán Tepui" leaf stolon propagation

[dvg]

This leaf stolon had already started sending out plant parts from its "leaf" tip,  before it broke free from its attaching stem.



That leafy stolon was then placed on a bed of live Sphagnum, where it began further growth.

I had expected traps to be formed first, followed by leaves, but that isn't what happened.

Recently snapped a pic of the tubers forming a ring around the tip of that detached U. quelchii leaf stolon.



There are also three small leafy stolons in there as well.

I have been documenting the growth on this clone since its arrival here, over at Fred G's site:

And a photo of this clone's flower can be seen in the first post of this thread, over at CP North:

The photosynthetic leaf stolens have grown out a bit more in size, since the original post, here.



And bladder traps are now being made, with more visible when I was pushing away the moss that was threatening to overgrow everything.
