Check out the root on this year-old Cephalotus. I received it as a leaf pulling from Jerry.
My first plant of this variety this one. I am pretty psyched.
I was hoping to see photos of other peoples cephalotus flowering this year. Please share your plants and updates throughout this season! Always exciting to see what others are doing.
I took a sick day today and was able to mosey out to the greenhouse to snap a few photos of some flower stalks...
1) Opening bid amount $2
2) Item description - THIS AUCTION IS NOT FOR AN ACTUAL ROOTED CEPH. I will be sending atleast 3 FRESH leaf pull from whatever Ceph leaves look the best on the day of shipping. The higher the bid the more leaves I'll send, Within reason:-D. These will not be typical...
This is a leaf pulling that is a few months old. Not showing new growth on top, not sure about rooting, but the leaf is very green which shows it's still alive! I started this a few month ago just for the auction.
Very rare clone that is hard to come by.
Winner pays shipping. $8
Starting bid $10
Some people like to grow Cephalotus in aerated, well drained soil, containing all sorts of materials. So, I decided to go quite the opposite, planting in an un-drained container (Christmas pudding tub), in pure peat and flooded on a weekly basis. I have been growing it this way since Autumn. I...
Last August I received some cephalotus seeds from Jcal. The first one's germinated about six weeks ago and have finally grown big enough that I can see their teeny pitchers without needing a magnifying glass. And slowly, more and more are starting to sprout. I will be posting pictures soon...
I was never one to bag cephalotus after dividing. The have always grown well for me after all. I divided one of my plants and decided to bag a few and put a few out in the greenhouse.
The bagged one has shown rapid growth. The greenhouse plant not so much. Same clone, same soil, same everything...
This is the final version ( for now) I have decided to go with. The three pumps are now all on this MkIII version. All I need to do now is introduce my seedling Darlingtonia to the Sphagnum baskets. I'll be slipping in a few pots of Cephalotus too.

I have a Cephalotus plant that is ~5 years of age. It is really healthy, produces at least one new pitcher every other month, and it is growing. It is still tiny though, and I know these plants are supposed to be slow to develop. How long should it take a healthy Cephalotus plant to reach its...
After two years of growing these Cephalotus from seed, they are FINALLY starting to form mature pitchers! :banana2: Here's the slightly toothed pitcher I spotted yesterday:
2 part question.
1. How deep to you plant your leaf stems?
I have a habit of planting deep, with only the leaf exposed. I have a feeling that this increases the survival rate of the leaf, but may take longer because the plant has to travel farther to reach the surface. I have seen others lay...
I am looking to trade Cephalotus for other clones I do not have.
If you have a clone not listed below please let me know. I would love to trade.
Clones marked with (*) are very rare and I will only consider trades of plants of equal value.
Current growlist:
*C. 'Eden Black' x 'Eden Black'...
I just wanted to document how long it takes to generate some new plants from a small Cephalotus. I always think it's a good idea, if possible, to propagate a new plant.
I received the plant 4 weeks ago tomorrow, from a generous giveaway from Dexenthes (thanks!). The plant looked beautiful...
Here is how the RH and temperature (degC) changed from 4 Feb to 8 Feb, in hot and humid Singapore where I live. The readings are recorded by the datalogger every 10 minutes.
Genera of CPs I grow in above conditions
Dionaea
Nepenthes (lowlands and some intermediates)
Sarracenia
Cephalotus...
I was messing around with one of my cephs, looking for new growth, kinda scraping some crud off the side of the stalk when this popped out. I believe it's part of the plant. Did this ceph just make a gemmae lol?
Hello all,
I have a couple of Nepenthes seedlings that I would like to trade, if possible. I finally feel that a couple of them are large enough to consider shipping. These plants are just over an inch in diameter so they are still very small, however they are just over a year old. This...
I am growing very young cephalotus seedlings. I use 1/3 sand, 1/3 perlite and 1/3 peat for media. I use 2 pots: a pot with media and holes and this pot is inside another pot with a little water so it can hold a little water for high humidity. I put the pot in low light now for few days then...
