Heh, well got a few pictures in tonight, more will be up tommorow.

Isn't the best, but I'll get a better picture. Digitalis Purpurea AKA The Common FoxGlove.

And yes the awaited pictures of my G-house construction!

The G-house measures 21 ft long by 17 ft wide. And is about 8-9 ft tall.

Hey NepG,
Looks like a pretty nice set-up you'll have when all is said and done.

Awsome Nep G! I'm jealous.

But I'm glad there ARE people out there lucky enough to have a greenhouse. BTW...I had some nice foxgloves this year too.

Thanks for the kind comments you two!!! I kinda put the g-house up for my own good (as the CP's are parading through my house,esp. my 2 foot diameter N.Truncata with 10 inch pitchers&#33

And sorta for other people's good as I will/can have other CP available for trade,etc with the proper environment and it will be in a larger space.

Good to see that catesbaei is growing good. As far as the leucophylla - this is not the best time of year for good leuco pitchers. They usually put up a 'snake-like' crop early in the year, and put up their robust ones in the fall. Wait until around September - that's when they put up their 'real' pitchers. I have one form that puts up nothing but phyllodia-like pitchers until fall.

Hi Nep G,
Looks good your new set up, you should be able to grow 100s of CP in there
