Very nice photos, Andreas! Thanks for posting them for all to enjoy!

BTW, in what sort of compost did you observe this species growing?

Beautiful photos and incredible plants!!! Just wonderful. I think this is the first photo Ive ever seen of a lower pitcher also, very cool.

Well, as far as I know, this was the first time, a pic of a lower N. dubia pitcher was ever published

Very much like an N. inermis. Andreas, do the lids keep out alot of rainwater? It seems like they might not seeing the angle they are at. Also is the pitcher fluid very viscous?

Thanks!

Hey Nep. G, I was going to say the same thing. You took the word out of my mouth.

Yeah the lowers look real similar to inermis. The fluid in inermis is very weird, I was spraying water into a pitcher and it overflowed. The fluid made a full string from where the plant is hanging to the floor of the terrarium (about 3 feet).
Neat!

You mean like that string that hangs from a toddler's mouth when they have a tantrum?

Sorry.
