Announcing the August, 2022 meeting - next weekend on Aug. 13. Same time, same place.

The things I know of that could cause the effects you describe are: sudden increase in temperatures, sudden decrease in humidity, sudden increase in light. Any such changes recently?

I meant that you have the lights overhead so that there would be more around the top than the bottom, in the way a vining plant would likely have it in the wild. With indoor hanging plants it is easy to end up lighting them more at the bottom. And, yes, I'd take a cutting!

:welcome: I'm in Washington State as well. 'Looking forward to hearing about your plants.

:welcome: 'Looks like a nice collection.

'Looks great! Is that one Pinguicula gigantea?

While I'm nobody's idea of a Nepenthes pro, I'd say the little plant looks a bit roughed-up but o.k. overall. It is often a somewhat tense time when we begin with new plants and are trying to find out exactly what they want. I wish you success.
