Wow those are HUGE pitchers! What is that - sang red or something?
 
  • #25
thez - it looks exactly like my sang orange, so i am gonna say that there in DaJimmer's photo is a sang orange.
 
  • #26
actually i bought it from a nursery as a "pink" but whatever.
 
  • #27
Oh yeah, it is kinda pink huh? Very nice in any case, none of my plants are that big yet because I haven't really been collecting for ... actually it's been about a year now!! :-O

Here's a new one that I just got today - N. Song of Melancholy:
PA070017.jpg


so I'm glad I decided to repot this one especially for two reasons - the previous potting mix had decomposed to slimy mud in the center of the pot, and it actually was two plants instead of one with a basal!

...the bigger from which that pitcher above came (yes, photography stand is a Heli terra :p):

...and the smaller, looking a little stunted but I assume will have a full recovery:

Menehune from front and back (and notice the two basals :boogie:):

aww, they're cute :3
 
  • #34
Awesome heli's :)
nice looking lfs too :D
 
  • #36
Ventricosa x Dubia!!!! That should be something else, lol. ALL your plants are looking great. Hope all those helis, etc... do well for you.
 
  • #37
Thanks!

Here's shots of the only pitcher on Parvana I've got at the moment - it should have a red peristome to it, but i didn't give it enough light when it was growing in (months ago actually, it's a long-laster!)

Really awesome!!!! I love neps with long lasting pitchers. Like ampullaria. Even Lowii x Truncata has very long lasting pitchers.
 
  • #39
Helis galore... and they all look the same to me. :p
 
  • #40
nep101: true dat
clue: indeed, except for tatei - you can tell it apart from the rest because it's ugly :lol:

------------edit so i try not to double post---------------
OK, here we go because I've been lazy:

D.helodes flower

Phal. doweryensis sprouting another growth point

my new replacement Theobroma cacao still wrapped up from unboxing (next to the briggsiana box)
PA140030.jpg


briggsiana Peter D'amato pitcher
PA140034.jpg


the ginormous cutting of PDA that I got
PA140032.jpg


ginormous briggsiana Atlanta Giant cutting (yes those are my Heli tanks behind...the cutting and pitchers are HUGE :eek:)
PA140035.jpg


and a pitcher of it
PA140031.jpg


I kept those two pitchers after I cut them off...thinking of drying them and maybe doing something with them later like people have dried eddie pitchers :p

I put all the vine cuttings in media, bagged, no rooting hormone because I heard rootone was a rooting inhibitor :-))

And here's a pitcher of the campanulata X (spectabilis X talangensis) - I hope it colors up for me in the sun!

(if there's a double, mods please remove..)
