Hey guys, I have 3 Nepenthes that I would like to trade out.
- Nepenthes hamata, fresh cutting from the shoot that is boxed out in the picture. Established growth point. I'm not entirely sure of the pedigree. I was told by the people at UC Davis that the mother plant was a gift to the conservatory from Ch'ien Lee. Looks fairly typical of the other clones out there, pitchers can turn dark purple under good light. Original was stolen from the conservatory in the recent years... hence why mine is a bit hacked up. Cutting will be taken at time of shipping.
- x briggsiana var. 'Peter D'Amato', 4" pot on the right, rooted cutting taken from a basal shoot. Sourced from UC Davis.
- N. spathulata, rooted female cutting. Received way back in the early 2000s from another hobbyist. Supposedly from Exotica Plants, so it may look a little different from the BE clone out there.
All seem to be pretty easy growers. I grow them upstairs on the windowsill. I live in the inland east Bay Area and today was up into the 100s with 12% RH. These can take a bit of abuse for sure.
What I'm looking for:
N. ramispina
Cephalotus 'Eden Black'/'Hummer's Giant'
I'm also open to other Highland Species of similar value
Thanks for looking!
Pic taken today of the mother spathulata, pitcher is about 7.5inches tall.
For some reason I never took a pic of my hamata at its prime... Here is an older pic (2012) of it with smallish pitchers under less ideal lighting.
