Some random photos

Hi, just thought I'd snap some pics while I was photographing my U. longifolia. Here's my latest N. maxima var superba:

Here's my N. aristolochioides, which doesn't grow fast at all, and isn't really getting bigger, but pitchers every leaf, and they last a good while:

Here's my little N. petiolata, which never slowed down after Tony sent it out. It just grows like crazy:

And finally, the latest pitcher on my N. x mastersiana, which is starting to look great. The latest leaf is a monster!

How big is that first pitcher? Looks quite big.
 
I really like the mastersiana, where did you get it ? what are its parentage?
 
N. x Mastersiana is N. khasiana x N. sanguinea I believe.

Also, wonderful plants Max! I love the N. maxima!!

Hehe the aristolochiodies looks like its trying to hold up its pitchers to prevent them from touching the sphagnum and getting wet - so cute!

Wow, Caps, that aristo looks great! So many pitchers. Do you feed it? I have a feeling I prematurely kill off some of the pitchers by feeding them stuff that's really a hair too big. On the flip side, it does improve the growth speed of the plant. I guess the trick would be to feed it small stuff, so you don't kill the pitcher, but still give the plant a boost.

Wow! I really like the way that N. aristolochioides looks! Nice and petite but with its fair share of pitchers. Very nice pictures, the whole lot, thanks for sharing.

I like the maxima!!! Yep, N. mastersiana is N. khasiana x sanguinea. It's one of our favorites, and grows both highland and lowland.

Thanks everyone!

Schloaty, generally I don't feed my neps at all. Most of the pitchers have nothing in them but a few gnats or ants. Once in a while, I drop a koi pellet into the larger pitchers, but I don't think I've ever fed the aristo.

Think if you did feed it.
