The damaged pitchers have died.. down to the one that is immature in the pic but has since opened.
Took a peek at the roots yesterday, still have hope but its going to be a long recovery me thinks
Congratulations, Butch! My pilosa -- on the mend as well -- was also handled by the lowland gorillas of the USDA. I preferred the good old days when they simply flung their dung . . .
She has definitely been a drama queen
I don't know how much easier it would have been had it arrived in better shape but sheesh she has been a problem child.....
ICU has been lower light, cooler temps, and higher airflow with near constant, but gentle fog.
my minor "big orange" seems to fit into the drama queen category as well. came as two tiny tiny plantlets each with a solitary root. they have put out some tiny pitchers but haven't gotten any larger. the "burgundy black" plants are even showing them up
I don't have a burgundy black yet.... I have been offered a small division when the time comes, looking forward to that
Curious as to what your big orange turns out like
So far if I feed it, it grows... Stop feeding, and it stops growing.... it seems very needy in that way.
I've been putting 1/4 strength ferts in the pitcher with some small fish pellets every now and again.
sure, jump on in.... the water is fine
oh and a member sent me a itty bitty, teeny weeny Burgundy Black for my Bday.... woot woot
Nice
Im pretty sure your experience and knowledges will bring you a bigger bb than mine next summer, even if your plant is tiny ! But i will try hard growing mine the faster i can lol.
For your pilosa, you feed your juvenile pitchers or you already have adult ones ?
