*pun intended 95% of my carnivorous collection is Nepenthes these days, though I used to have pings, sundews and sarracenia as well. (Before I went on vacation and my roommate forgot to water them..... RIP) One day I will again acquire some. Recently I started a lot of stem cuttings (August 2016), bought exciting new plants from Brad's greenhouse (November 2016), and started experimenting with maxsea fertilizer (with good results.) So, lots of things are growing! A lot!
![Nov 2016](http://hermioneosmers.com/OCPS-pics/November-2016.jpg) ^ Here they are in November right when I potted up the new plants. The cuttings (in the back row) have been growing for a while already.
![March 2017](http://hermioneosmers.com/OCPS-pics/March-2017) ^ And here last week! (They are getting out of control... Especially the cuttings! Some will definitely need a new home before they take over completely...)
![N. ventrata, March 2017](http://hermioneosmers.com/OCPS-pics/ventrata.jpg) ^ The cuttings (all N. ventrata) are growing some pretty great pitchers on about 1/3 of them, which is very exciting! I think the maxsea helped out quite a bit.
![N. flava, March 2017](http://hermioneosmers.com/OCPS-pics/flava-SG.jpg) ^ N. burbidgeae x campanulata is starting to grow some slightly bigger pitchers and N. flava has sprouted a whole host of adorable baby pitchers! (They are TINY and SO CUTE.) There are more cuties to photograph yet, so I'll update on those when I get a chance.

I have a hard time deciding which I like better; baby pitchers or huge ones. You have a wonderful collection! Thanks for sharing. ![:)](//storage.proboards.com/forum/images/smiley/smiley.png)

Big pitchers are super impressive but the itty bitty ones are the cutest ever ![:D](//storage.proboards.com/forum/images/smiley/grin.png) You'll have to update us with more of those cuties. Great collection!

The pitchers look really nice! I got some nepenthes from Brad's two weeks ago.
