Weird... I liked some of these plants and they weren't Nepenthes... :scratch:

I like the N. x 'Sabre'

Thanks buddy! It was supposed to be 1" in diameter but it turned to out to be over 2"! :D

Thanks to all the other comments as well.

Nice robust argentii there Heli. Now the challenge is to keep it healthy & growing well .... :0o:

Schizzie looks happy - keep up the good work!

Thanks Ron! I'm up to the challenge :p. Btw, it is potted in lfs/perlite/charcoal/bark with lfs top dressing for anchoring its tendrils. It is also getting UHL conditions, 85%+ humidity and lots of wind :p.

Not sure that flatulence is a requirement of that particularly species, Luca.


Great looking plant!

Thanks, farting on my argentii may become a bit difficult but I'm sure with a steady diet of beans I will be able to produce the proper amount of wind. But on a serious note, argentii comes from wind swept mountains so I'm sure it would enjoy a lot of air movement, something that can be done with my fans :).

haha just kidding, of course.. I wonder if the strong winds are simply an indication that it prefers to bury its pitchers and grow in lower humidity?

It is now 2" in diameter, probably 2.5-3" when the newest leaf unfurls.
