Thanks lime

Some blurry shots wheeee! I just moved, so new setting. I'll see how the plants take to it all over the course of the next couple months to decide if I actually need grow lights or not.

sibuyanensis x xTrusmadiensis basal pitcher

densiflora x robcantleyii

veitchii K

ventricosa x intermis

ventricosa x xTrusmadiensis

Utricularia nelumbifolia sending up another flower stalk

foreground, spectabilis x talangensis, the big unopened pitcher is hamata x platychila, and the pot the pitcher is sitting on is the hamata BE clone

and here's a hamata x platychila opened up

izumiae x xTrusmadiensis - little lid, but not bad

macrophylla BE

hamata likely AW

spathulata x hamata

campanulata x maxima

bongso

eymae x jacquelineae

Sarracenia minibog

Cephalotus Big Boy putting up a flower stalk

vft/cobra minibog

Cephalotus vigorous with pygmy dews minibog

the 'new' neps balcony!

this villosa pitcher (puny!) just opened up - I hope there's a peristome working on unfurling in there!

here's the whole villosa plant

oddly angled boschiana x campanulata

aristolochioides

inermis

D.graomogolensis, N.mikei

thorelii x campanulata

campanulata x (spectabilis x talangensis)

khasiana x viking

platychila - I turned this tendril around so maybe I'll get a right-side-up pitcher? hopefully an upper?

and everything else inside is along the West side again. South windows just are too... vertically downwards sunshine v.s. actually streaming in

 

[swords]

Wow look at all the light your place gets! Mine only has one window on the northwest direction...

Ya - those windows get light from about noonish til maybe 6/7PM, but the balcony only from about 3-5ish currently given the angle of the sun considering the big tall building that cuts off the light early. Buuuut I'm hoping it'll be sufficient for pitcher production, and I do get the most light outta anyone else in the building I think so I'm saying I'm lucky. :grin:

Congratulations on your new place! Everything looks great as always.

Thanks for sharing!

Wow!!! lookin good Thez!!!

 

[thez_yo]

Thanks!

 

[carnivoure12]

WOW! All the plants are looking superb The N. densiflora x robcantelyi is just beautiful, so was the N. ventricosa x xTM, The N. ventricsa x inermis, the N. inermis! So many things looking good to mention, especially your new place

 

[Brokken]

The plants are doing really well, and I really like the new place. I think that the neps may actually do better with diffuse light rather than direct.

 

[thez_yo]

Thanks

Yeah I'm hoping the ones I've moved inside do OK. That rightmost window gets the most light of all my windows... if only I could find a way to fit *all* the neps in it

 

[Devon]

It's been too long since I last checked out this thread. Your plants are fantastic!! I especially love that green sphagnum, and the graom... and all of your neps.

 

[thez_yo]

Thanks I've been trying my absolute hardest to finally figure out how to grow sphag out here in San Diego. I think I may finally have figured it out!

 

[CreatureTom]

Looks awesome, I love your Hamata x Platy!

 

[thez_yo]

Thanks

Update time!

Did I post these already? boschiana x campanulata that's been moved indoors:

a phalaenopsis mutt

veitchii K got moved indoors too

and the campanulata x maxima (AW clone)

now the platychila is making funny tendrils... it was oriented downwards so I put it rightside up. What does it do next? sideways. sideways?!

here's the whole plant from up top

I think it was the esteemed carnivoure12 who asked if I still possessed a jacquelineae - yes, but nothing to write home about. I think these tendrils will be fruitious.

some pygmy and small dews with a 'vigorous' Cephalotus

I kept a flava - not the female clone, but the one I've had about 3ish years now. The species doesn't do well for me, but I'm hopeful nonetheless

petiolata inflating more tendrils

aristolochioides pitchering once more now that the weather has warmed (uhl? I disagree!)

inermis working on that third pitcher. I'm surprised it's still keeping the previous two!

bongso the MT clone

U.nelumbifolia working on no less than 4 flowers!

recently opened S.xUmlauftiana pitcher

and the flava ornata behind

a densiflora x robcantleyi pitcher

and a Cephalotus 'Big Boy' flower stalk!

and the indoor plants in what I think is their final location

 

[carnivoure12]

The N. bongso is really a champ! very nice update thez

 

[thez_yo]

Thanks carn
