    Cephalotus 'Hummer's Giant'

    I was inspired by the other Cephalotus pictures posted and thought I would share my little baby 'Hummer's Giant.' I got this babe a little while ago in a trade. You can see the large shriveled pitcher it came with.





    Onward and upward!

    Very nice.

    It took me a year to have mine settle - but that was from a source outside the U.S.

    Phil - just normal room temperatures most of the time. This time of year usually between 60 and 70 F, and the humidity is starting to rise again. Over winter, the humidity was between too low to be read by my hygrometer and 20%.

    Quick update: Not much has changed. Slow as usual, but still chugging along. You can see some size difference from the first picture (2 pitchers) and the new ones below. I've also bought a better camera since those pictures.

    xvart, do you remove any of the dead parts? Or you just leave them on?

    I am wondering because I would meticulously remove every bit of brown.
