Ok, I'm going to ask a newbie question. I've been reading some of the posts and I keep hearing about the upper and lower pitchers. From what I understand and can see there can be a difference between the pitchers that form on the top of the plant compared to the bottom of the plant...is that correct? Is there a reason why?
Also, and this may sound dumb, but if someone takes a cutting from the upper portion of the plant that is producing one type of pitcher (in comparison to the lower pitchers) and plants it, will the top clipping only produce those upper pitchers? My guess is no, that after a time, the lower portion will start producing the lower pitchers that are different than the upper pitchers. Is this correct?
Again, sorry for the newbie questions. While some of you are working yourselves off the floor from laughter, I'll be donning on my fire-retardent clothing and preparing for the flaming.
