I'd like to show this plant, now that it's 1 year old.
I grew it from seed I got from tropics. Hilariously enough, this is the only seedling that survived under my conditions. The seed I got apparently went all over the place before it came here, so that may explain that. Anyway, it is developing extremely fast (and this is pretty much the only plant I keep a log of). I wish all my neps grew like this:
At 7 months:
At 10 or 11 months:
Now (approx. 1 year). It has developed a nice red color on the leaves, even in relatively low light. The leaves are already bright red when they unfurl, but then they fade slightly to this:
current pitcher:
The plant is currently ~23cm (touch over 9"). It is making a 2.125" (5.39cm) on a 4.5" (11.43cm) leaf. The pitcher is still inflating as well. Hopefully it keeps getting bigger before opening
