i went to red hill market because its close to where i play badminton...i bought a nepenthes for $4(i bargained) the pitchers are about 2inches long and i also bought a aloe vera for $3...i also went to the other FEF beside Mcdonalds ...they said that they are going to transport CPs from Holand tommorow...they sell neps there for $22
Oh it appears the Uncle at Redhill's finally brought in more neps. $4? That's obscene.
I'll go have a look one of these days.
wezx, I'd advise you to repot your nep, as the redhill ones have an alarming tendency to come potted in very heavy peat soil, with lots of fertiliser balls in it. Killed off two of my pitchers before I finally repotted.
i Bought it from an Auntie...all the plant shops there seems to have neps but you have to tell them to bring them first or they wont bring...i think theres no demand...If the soil is bad for the neps then how did the aunties grow them?
Also...i bought some spahgum moss from FEF called "just moss"...is that ok for neps...should i soak in water first?
thanks
im not sure about name of CPs ,i havent studied about the names of the neps yet because i dont have any Cp books yet...it might be atala or something(i dont even know the names of my neps!
i think they might have used the right mix because i see perlite on the soil....but theres something im worried about now...i made a cutting and there was black stuff on the insides of the stem of the "parent plant".Is this normal?
thanks!
