Awesome pics!! Thanks for sharing.
 
Ooo! I like the Amp Lime Twist. I have it too, but no basal pitchers yet.
 
Color wise I think the Lime Twist is my favorite amp so far. How big is yours? Mine created basals pretty quickly, although it may be due to the fact the main vine was hanging below the soil level.
 
:0o:beautiful pics and plants,awesome just how quick these plants can grow when they like their conditions:bigthumpup:
 
Absolutely gorgeous!
 
My line twist has been grown in a terrarium. And I can see now its light is weak. I need to replace the bulbs. Because my line twist looks light compared to yours. But other things color nicely.I need to redo the terrarium for sure. Getting over grown.

Still awesome plants you have there.

Thanks! :) Does anyone know if the lime twist is seed grown or TC? I'm curious because I've had a couple people mention the same thing as well. My plant are currently growing under 70% shade cloth so they don't get a ton of light (although that's all relative I guess).


I do notice the body fades quite a bit after a while though. They start out dark maroon and pink and fade to a dull/lighter color. The peristome seems to do the opposite. It's starts out a white cream and slowly darkens to a lime color.

Yes N. ampullaria 'lime twist' is a tc clone. I had heard that it is a weak and unpredictable clone as well.

Thanks for the info Bio. Makes sense that it's a TC clone :)
I guess I lucked out and got a good one! It's been a pretty happy plant for me so far.

N. mirabilis has finally put out a pitcher after sulking all winter long. Should get a really nice pitcher on the next one!

Does anyone else get condensation views under the peristome? Seems pretty frequent on this Nepenthes.

Green with envy here. Love the N. spec x vent.
 
  • #19
Yep, spec x vent has been one of those ones I've longed for for a while. Also, love the mirabilis peristome! I have a bunch of seedlings only just getting any real size to them, I'm dying to see the peristome on them show up....

Michelle, everything is looking great! I love the color of the mirablis and the jump in pitcher size of the rafflesiana.

Thanks for sharing!

Congrats on finishing finals....
