Then and Now

My "Marbled Dragon" put out a new pitcher with a large persitome and I decided to do a then and now thread. This is for those of you who are new to neps and get a small plant that doesn't look very nice. When I got this nep I thought to myself, This looks like I got a lousy clone. I was wrong:)

My screen name was chosen years ago for Zero skateboards. The coke zero I started drinking because I wanted to lose weight and I don't like traditional diet sodas.
I might try to dig up some other old pics, but with 50gb+ of pics it might take a while.
peace,
Zero
 
Beautiful plant!


Not a fan of TaB, eh? Heha
 
Obviously, the plant is doing better because you have switched to a superior soft drink brand.
Nice pics. :)

Marbled Dragon is a great plant! I recently took a few cuttings from mine and they rooted up readily in sphagnum moss. Very nice clone. I especially like how wide the pitchers get on yours.

Very nice N. "marbled dragon". It's a great plant. I used to be a species snob until I got this hybrid as a free gift in an order two years ago. It is now a show stopper. Very easy grower. Pitchers on every leaf even thru the winter. Was never a big N. maxima fan, but this crossed with truncata is awesome.
Good growing!
