Fantastic neps! Spect x ventricosa has such an amazing peristome, and the hamata is looking great! It's in intermediate conditions, isn't it?
 
i think shes growing it in lowland conditions Cap. and yeah i think that is a Miranda :)
 
Thanks! Yes they are in intermediate conditions. I have redone my setup so the conditions are more toward the highland side of intermediate instead of closer to being lowland conditions. I sealed the area off, used some styrofoam on three sides to help insulate and used plastic on the rest. I added a fan and humidifier. Conditions range between 65-75 depending on the temperature outside. There is no night time drop. This summer I'm hoping it will be a bit cooler than 82 but who knows. I'll probably need to move everything down to floor level to have a decent difference once it warms up. The changes I made were not necessary for the Nepenthes but my few Helis are enjoying the conditions.
 
Very nice Crissytal. Glad to see your plants are doing well. And welcome back...haven't seen you around in awhile!
 
Thanks guys.

Sasha, glad to be back. I've been lurking more lately than posting. Guess I've been taking somewhat of a break.
 
I love the black stripes on the pristome on the first nep :) I love your Hamata
 
Great pics...especially like the spec x vent and the nectar drops on N. bicalcarata.

Good job!
 
Nice neps:)
I can't wait till my LL neps wake up.
