thanks everyone for the kind comments....one more slew of pitchers i mean pictures....
frontal and myspace shots of H. heterodoxa and N. hamata
drosera villosa. love this plant, although the petiole has been regressing in length. i hope that is more due to temps and nothing serious like sudden South American Drosera death or something. >.>
utricularia jamesoniana, slowly but surely---flower should be fully open within a week or two
utricularia campbelliana- starting to take off for me...you can see some exposed traps, one of which is reddish
last but not least, D. derbyensis---starting to grow up, transitioning from glabrous to woolly.
@brokken: yes....i've had campbelliana for almost a year and a half now---can you believe that this plant started off from a plant plug of 2-3 leaves? such a glacial pace, but now starting to pick up. the undergrowth/rolons/stolons, whatever you want to call it, have become more noticeable lately, and are primarily responsible for the abundance of leaves.
@blue: perhaps....although i've always heard of it going the otherway around...short then elongated. either way...the growth point isnt shrinking so i guess im safe? now, if only i could get it to keep more than 2 leaves at a time!
@thez: neps are currently rebounding. platy, RHH hamata, tenuis, jacq, and burbidgeae currently inflating pitchers. will take pictures when there are pictures to take. RHH hamata and jacq look like the first to be photographed. jamban is doing some weird stasis thing....nothings dying, but nothings growing either.
@kyle: yes...of course it would grow at a glacial pace! if it didnt, it wouldnt be commanding ~$300 for a sprig!
@jb: thank you very much sir! my dementor hamata hasnt pitchered for me since i changed my tank perimeters...we'll see if it still grows deformed pitchers.
