Lol. I will say I'm not a huge fan of 99% of the robcantleyi hybrids out there but I think it could make a nice hybrid with a simple truncata or veitchii. Maybe even back crossed onto another robcantleyi hybrid? Something closely related anyway since these guys don't seem to offer many of their...

My robcantleyi has been bothering a bit lately so today I decided to get a little aggressive with it. It made a gnarled leaf about two leaves ago which I didn't want to cut off because I'm usually of the mindset that if its green you shouldn't mess with it. The next leaf developed fine but this...

You can see my growlist here. I think it's mostly up to date although my mom still has to mail me a couple of my plants that didn't make the move with me. No low land plants though - mostly intermediates. The bottom rack has a pasian/highland truncata, robcantleyii, and a veitchii K. My other...

Now that I'm done with college and can have my plants with me again I decided a dedicated grow space was in order. Given where I live I decided a grow shelf seemed to be my best bet. I ordered the materials a couple weeks back and they arrived Monday. Finished getting it set up yesterday and I'm...

Found this today and it was a little exciting :) Will be nice when it starts pitchering again with the warmer weather and longer days. <a href="http://s279.photobucket.com/user/sotohpym/media/Nepenthes/IMAG0907_zpsmpxe6fth.jpg.html" target="_blank"><img...

Will start looking through PM's after this post. Thought I would get up a couple of pictures. The veitchii is a little larger than I guessed at about 6 in. It just has 3 leaves at the moment but is healthy. Veitchii <a...

EDIT 4/25/14: I have arranged a tradeand the offer is now closed. Thanks forall the great trade offers everyone! Hopefully will have more cuttings to trade in the future :) I have a small rooted cutting of veitchii K that I am potentially looking to trade away to add something new to the...

Mine seems to grow well in intermediate temps about like all of my nepenthes. Never know from one plant to the next though how they'll react to your conditions. I find with time though that most seem to come around. I guess I'm particularly fond of this plant since I've had both the parent...

Becoming quite the interesting little hybrid in my collection but haven't heard much about it from other growers. Becoming almost like a tubby aristo as it progresses into intermediate pitchers. Don't know what the future will bring but some of the inflating tendrils look even more promising...

Added a new 6 lamp T5 fixture and the plants are finally acclimating. Figured I would put up a couple new pics. Pasian Truncata - somewhat different pitcher shape than it usually makes and not fully darkened <a...

Thanks guys! Will do

I took some cuttings today and I'm really wanting them to survive so I thought I would check in with you all about some things. 1) I took some cuttings of veitchii and I was wondering what you guys think on cutting the leaves in half like you would with a lot of other species to help retain...

Up for auction is a rooted cutting of N. ventricosa x carunculata var robusta. It currently doesn't have any pitchers but is rooted and healthy. It is a pretty and robust plant which I have been growing in household conditions with no problems.The first two picture links are past pictures of the...

Sorry to hear about your troubles (except the Birthday of course! Hope it's a great one!). As a past winner of some of your auction items I wanted to thank you for all your past contributions. They're always awesome and your generosity has been inspiring!
