-Two pygmies I got from Syble this winter, and both are flowering already! Don't remember their name, but Syble can surely enlight me on this...
-Heliamphora minor with juvenile pitchers: Recently acclimatized ex vitro, I'm glad to see they are doing well. I have about 12-15 for now, if any are interested, let it me know, because I am not going to keep all those for sure once they will be grown-up!
-Nepenthes x wrigleyana . Got this plants 2 years ago, but after having negelcted it for too long, I've decided to put in under light in my terrarium. The results hasn't been long to see! A small but yet colorful pitcher formed, and a few others are on the way. I can't wait to see them bigger! You can see Drosera prolifera in the background.
-Nepenthes ramispina. Got it from the recent auctions on eBay. A life's long dream (well, sort of). I can't get bored to look at the contrast of the blackish pitcher and the greenish creamy pitcher inwall
-Nepenthes petiolata. Another plant from eBay (Macrovulgaris). Don't know much about this plant since the infos are pretty scarce, but this picture (http://www.nepenthesforeveryone.com/petiolata.htm) at the bottom of the page MAKE ME bid on it... and I got it! So, if you can read between the lines, it's all Bob Ziemer's fault, for gathering tons of links and put up the marvelous CP Photo Finder, if I bought this plant and broke my budget... Shame on you Bob .
-Nepenthes sibuyanensis: No pitcher on this arrival of eBay plants, but the plants is pretty healthy. I put it in the terrarium with a closed lid anyway, with the size of its mature pitchers, I didn't wanted to have to explain to my girlfriend where her cat has been for the last 2 weeks...
-Nepenthes gymnamphora: Finally, at last but not the least! Same statement as above: eBay, no pitcher, very nice healthy plant. Great terrarium candidate, it cames with 2-3 offshots already growing off the main stem!
I hope this few (!!!) pictures enlighten this rainy day... And sorry for Dial-up users! (It's a bit late for excuses, i know!)
