That is great news! I hope these forums and some newly released plants out on the market help fuel your collection! Definitely share your progress, I would love to see how it is going.

That lowii is already looking great. Looking forward to see how that shapes up.

Yes! Thanks, I am really happy with this one. My previous two Lowii's have barely progressed or gotten worse in the 2 years I have had them...

Awesome plants!!!!

It would be really neat to see the greenhouse, towards the end of this thread you have a partial pic.

Are you doing anything special with temps, where's the GH located, etc. (In the house, outside, etc.)

My mother bought a small greenhouse from Home Depot that resides on her deck. She's moving, and I was sorely tempted to nab it for the basement to grow something that requires high humidity. Unfortunately the way it's configured it's such a PITA to put together.. I didn't want to disassemble and reassemble in the basement.

The below link is the same GH. The plastic panels are a nightmare to fit together.

Beautiful collection! Slightly envious but more amazed. Yes, I too am obsessed with these beauties.

Thanks! I can post a picture of more of the setup soon. Still working on the lighting actually. I am using a grow-tent rather than a traditional greenhouse, and it just sits in the middle of my living room, haha. So far it has worked well to keep all of the humidity and moisture in without damaging my apartment floors! It wasn't too hard to assemble and is relatively sturdy, but I am not hanging any plants.

Setup and more pics to come. Still working on lighting and spacing, but my job has been tough recently so I haven't had much time.

Had to do some cleaning yesterday, so the whole setup is a mess. Luckily some of the plants are doing alright. I apologize in advance for the lighting

Congratulations on your linguata. I didn't manage to have such good luck with mine.

Thanks! In the year I have had it, it has put out 3-4 new leaves... :apologetic:
I think it had some shock from the climate changes, but I had also been placing it in low light.

damn you always have some amazing photos when you update! I just ordered a tiny seed grown naga, yours is everything I hope mine will be one day

Very cool your lingulata finally came around, sometimes it seems stubborn plants that wont pitcher wait for your spirits to be crushed before performing LOL

Thank you!
Definitely happy about the Naga, and I would say it has been one of the most consistent plants I have had. Hope yours is easy to grow as well.

I have a N. Nigra that is in a similar stubborn spot where it has produced 2 tiny leaves and no pitchers in the past year. Still hasn't gone fully black though so I hold on to hope^^
