Ae pronounced as a long 'a' is the way the Vatican does it. In classical Latin though it is often pronounced as a long 'e'. Either way is considered acceptable.

Doug, thank you very much! Must've missed yourcomment, it is slowly getting beastly :)


Update: A few nice pitchers opened for me, and two new additions arrived!

N. veitchii (k) - looking great and stripey with its latest

N. ventricosa - its hips don't lie.

N. truncata "pasian" - this baby made its biggest pitcher, and my biggest ever!

N. sanguinea - while I was raving about N. truncata opening a huge pitcher, this one was also working on one

Comparison

N. veitchii - this clone is from BE, rather pale, but I love it!

NEW - N. platychila - the pitcher/leaf ratio is impressive

That is a most impressive display of Nepenthes pitchers there Daniel!

Really like the N. veitchii (K) and your N. ventricosa.

And agreed, even though the BE N. veitchii isn't all painted up...

...it's still a classic beauty!.

Thanks for sharing.

very nice updates sir :) the pasian is my fav but the veitchii and sanguinea are also very very nice.

Keep it up plant dude!
 
  • #177
Doug - Thank you again! I knew you'd like the two varities of N. veitchii for sure. I also knew that N. ventricosa is the way to your heart ;)

myles - Yes, the pasian is impressive plant! Too bad I couldn't get a good picture of the N. sanguinea

Very stunning pitchers Daniel! Got to be honest, makes all my neps look like little runts :p.That platy really looks like a winner, and im pretty certain that it is the pure species. Great job :)

digging the veitchii carn. the platy looks promising too. one of my favorite plants...maybe because it's the only one that grows faithfully for me. XD
