OMG!! Nice plants!! Your Nepenthes hamata and Nepenthes veitchii really caught my eye!

I don't mean to be a bother here, but your dews at the top don't look like to Drosera glanduligera to me... maybe more like Drosera burmannii or Drosera sessilifolia.

These are amazing! Seed grown Nepenthes villosa?!? :drool:

I love your Nepenthes veitchii (k) as well. I can't wait for mine to get shipped--I really need more stripey goodness on a daily basis!

THANK YOU!! I love the comments and kind words. It's what I live for.. And in response..

Nope, didn't work to get comments :p

I was just thinking the same thing.. Tough crowd! :0o:

I KNOW, RIGHT!! mmm... stripey goodness. I just can't get enough!

I grew them from seed. And trust my source to the fullest.. ;) And to me, they look exactly like Drosera glanduligera. :scratch:

I hope I'm able to keep from letting my collection get huge like that again - too much work! LOL

yeah.. and that's just the HL greenhouse. The LL greenhouse is in the other room. :blush:

Hmm... those wires dont look safe.....

dude.. they're not. That's my next project.

SO many big pretty pitchers :drool:
And the kitties are cute, too! :-D

I moved the lights down almost 3 feet.. hopefully that helps with pitcher production. Guess we'll find out huh?

Apparently you were the only one that thought so.. :-( Oh wait, I THOUGHT SO TOO!! :-D

I thought we settled the dew debate a long while ago? No one thought they looked quite like Drosera burmannii or Drosera sessilifolia, and to consider that you've never had seeds of those, but did get some of Drosera glanduligera and put them in that pot...and everyone was like "oh, that's it!"...psh. I think they look like Drosera glanduligera as well, but I guess the only definite way to know is to wait until they flower.

Orly?! God...even more big pretty pitchers for you take pictures of... :drool: I can't wait!
