timbudtwo, Told you your gubler nep is ventricosa! Thats the first time I've ever seen a gubler nep thats not that unknown hybrid. Maybe they are starting to supply plants that are species? Or maybe it was a mistake?

That is N.Ventricosa "squat" Or N.Ventricosa "Yellow"

No mistake I'm sure. They supply different species to different areas.

trashcan posted a picture of one that came from pft, alot of the ones that came from pft are posted here, the pft carries the red variety, and alot of peeps here have the red variety

one tip from me is, give them a loose soil mix, they LOVE it, mine wasnt in a good soil mix, and when i was replanting it i noticed how much less perlite i put, and now i used orchidbark and lfs and i hope it grows

Tuyen: The first and second pictures I posted are of plants from Petflytrap. The first one is about 6 months old and the second one is one or two months old, but was not doing well (my girlfriend was taking care of it

). So its actually smaller than the ones PFT sells. As for a picture of the official Petflytrap ventricosa, you can follow the link at the top of the page "Buy a plant" and check out the website photos.

Hi tuyen thi

The one in my pics was bought from them and since I am at work I have no idea when I got it exactly but it was sometime last fall. It was a bit smaller but mine grows like a weed. I cant believe how many pitchers it has or how long they last if you look there's some real tiny ones twards the center of the plant those have been there since I got it.
