Chronically deformed N. ramispina

I didn't think he was serious, either lol.

I'll tell you guys what. It's Christmas time. Next person to post gets this hideous mutant for the cost of shipping. No point making a new thread just for this.

Really?

Well good luck on finding the one you want Clint. I might start looking too.....
 
  • #44
Really, Ant. PM me. Merry Christmas.

Now to look for a regular one....

I like mutants,
this plant just isn't mutated enough for me!

for example:

I HATE the dull garden center N. x ventrata plants
In fact, the only N. x ventrata plants I like are the reallllllly freaky tc mutants.
I'm not talking about a few hormone-induced root "bumps" here and there, I'm talk'n bout craze no-lid traps and random appendages out the wazoo!
I'd pay good money for a really mutated nepenthes.

lets not get PK started about all of that stuff...he has a degree in it.... :hail:

Well the mutant I want is Capensis "Crestate" now is that thing like impossible to find ??? I think it would be cool to get back into cultivation.
If I had a choice between the mutant or the non dented i'd go for non dented or if it was dented I'd send it away.

"cristate" D. capensis is extremely rare now. I heard it was very common in the 80's but it was unstable and eventually the vast majority of crested individuals reverted.

I once had a very cool looking cristate P. cyclosecta. When it was in winter leaf phase it looked like a wavy green brain. Unfortunately, it rotted.

I was wondering if it is a rare plant since I don't usually see N. ramispina for sale.
 
  • #52
No.
 
  • #53
So......might I pose a newbie question at this point?


...what does TC mean?
 
  • #55
Pffft, i was just testing you......
 
  • #56
TC in regards to neps is really used to speak of micropropagation if you want to split hairs...
 
  • #57
It would be like splitting atoms if you ask him anymore.:-))
 
  • #58
  • #59
What happend at the end with the mutant ramispina?
 
  • #60
It was given away for the cost of shipping, freeing up needed space.
