So hopefully.. I just keep posting pics here all the time instead of continually making new threads. Here we go..things have been slow because it's been chilly and dark this winter, but it's finally picking up.

To start 'er off, here's a tilly

All my plants are making 'stupid little lid syndrome' pitcher lids lately... it might be temperature related?
N. truncata 'Queen of Hearts' x 'King of Spades'
P4130026.jpg


Wistuba's Nepenthes sp. Doorman's top #2, which is rumored to be Nep. papuana
P4130025.jpg

puny pitchers still, but I'm just glad it's alive..

Pygmy Drosera stretching their flower stalks toward the sun

Sarracenia oreophila
P4130022.jpg


Sarracenia flava (ornata)
P4130020.jpg


The Drosera tray that's got capensis, burmanni, lots of pygmies, and some paradoxa and hybrids of it
P4130019.jpg


Mixed Pinguicula
P4130018.jpg


Utricularia nelumbifolia... there were flower petals on those just yesterday afternoon, and I tried to pollinate last weekend after both flowers were finally opened, so maybe I'll get seed.

Nepenthes tenuis, the ever charming
P4130016.jpg


Nepenthes veitchii x boschiana
P4130015.jpg


very recently opened Nepenthes adrianii: this plant puts out a lot of leaves and pitchers, but unfortunately it loses pitchers just as fast as it puts them out. Very variable pitcher color too - sometimes they have redder pitchers and red peristomes too.

I'm not sure what upsets me more, that you have the climate to grow all those beauties outside or that your camera gets such reliably crisp close-ups. XD
Good job!
