Even so, I'll for sure leave it for the more experienced, lol. I can almost guarantee I'd kill it, and that would be a downright shame.

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.

You got campbelliana! Congrats! :)
 
  • #127
@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.

Very nice! Looking at that U. campbelliana just reaffirms how ridiculous this hobby can be. :lol:
 
  • #129
@dex: this hobby? ridiculous? never! :awesome:

'Nice stuff. Perhaps the D.villosa is shortening its petioles as part of a maturing process?
 
  • #131
Oooh...very very nice! :drool:
 
  • #132
@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!

Hot diggety! How's the tenuis and stuff doing too, eh?
 
  • #134
@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. :(

Stuff looks great Amp...especially the U.camby :)
 
  • #136
@exo: hahahaha. thanks dude. but we all know the real show is with the flowers. ;)

Awesome plants and pictures. "utricularia campbelliana- starting to take off for me" ... *sees less than a dozen leaves* Hahaha, glacial? I guess so!
 
  • #138
Awesome awesome awesome amp!! Love the hamatas!! I so look forward to trying one one day. Fantastic growing.
 
  • #139
@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. :)

Jon. Oooooh, that's mighty purrrty! Say, what ever happened to your "special needs" hamata?
