Meh screw it i decided to get pics tonight since i have no idea how busy ill be tomorrow
My first clone (and personal favorite) Pitcher just opened, will probably get a little wider in the mouth but other than that it looks about done...
My second clone which has a basal, but that basal is about to go off to its new home with Brokken
Here's a more recent shot of my plant. Interestingly enough, the color of the pitchers seems to alternate between light and dark, regardless of the amount of light afforded it . . . Nepenthes jamban -- 28 April 2010
What a difference a few degrees make! I traded for this plant from a grower in an apartment. While it grew for him, it refused to pitcher. Here's it's 1st pitcher after finding a new home in my basement:
It is currently inflating another on the other side of the pot. I'm pretty impressed by the size of the pitcher vs the overall size of the plant (the pitcher seems too big for the plant...). This is the opposite of my maxima - large leaves & tiny pitchers....
My jamban became ill a few months back and is just now dropping a tendril again for me. I hope it looks even remotely as amazing as the others in this thread...
The leftmost tip cutting looks like should be making a pitcher soon!
Dormant nodes on the other sections have poked out but not begun developing yet, so they're a toss up.
My excuse why it's like this: I was lazy and I left it potted the way it had arrived and didn't put it in a nice open airy mix like I should have and the roots died. So I chopped it into 4 pieces and treated as vine cuttings and crossed my fingers, at least it looks like I'll still have the one plant.
I just got mine a couple weeks ago, so I can't take any credit for its growth. However, I will take credit for actually keeping it alive for the 2+ weeks
I wonder this also. The uppers I hoped to be 6" across when I first saw them. But now, seeing how small the plant remains, I'd guess they might reach 3" or 4", if that, across. Total guess.
