    ebay neps

    Seems like every home will have one soon
  3. I like to pot my Neps up in 100% live sphagnum moss.
  4. I'll try and take a picture tonight of my cutting to show you.
  5. It will grow upwards. I thought nothing was happening but waited until this weekend when I saw the tiny pitchers next to the leaf. Just hang in there and be patient :)
  6. I tried leaf cuttings for the first time this year. I pulled two leaves off and stuck them into the soil where the adult plant was growing. One leaf died within a couple of weeks but the other didn't and about two months later(which was this weekend) I discovered tiny pitchers growing. Don't pull the leaf out. If the leaf stays healthy looking then you should be fine.
  7. Not my binita but maybe next year. Hope so anyway
  8. Out of my small collection of drosera's, capensis for me :)

    Mine were fine in 3:1 peat perlite :)
  10. I've just had a flower open up today on my oreophila x flava maxima with a flower stalk about 1.5" tall. It looks rather sweet :)
  11. Where did you get them from?
  12. I missed out on those neps again. I just saw a tray of typical garden centre plants in kew for sale.
  13. I'll be going to Kew in a couple of weeks. Not been for a few years. Always an enjoyable day there with an excellent CP stand :)
  14. I've never used it and and have lost nothing :)
  15. Don't really mind what they have caught. As long as they are catching insects them I'm not too bothered :)
  16. I've used 3:1 peat perlite or more often, live sphagnum with the highland neps that I have. All are doing fine right now. Can't help you with your request. Sorry.
  17. Emi(who is very shy in appearing on the forum) also lives in London.
  18. Always worth posting this link as it's one of the best Ceph sites around. http://www.cephalotus.info/
  19. In most B&Q's that I've seen ventrata's in, the pitchers seem to have lost there lids.
