Sockhom Posted February 4, 2007 Report Share Posted February 4, 2007 Wow, gosh ! That Nepenthes truncata leaf is huuuge!!! Those plants look very healthy. Strange, though, how the leaves are big when compared to the pitcher's size (truncata and ampullaria). The last plant must be Nepenthes x trusmadiensis (lowii x macrophylla). Friendly, François.

hen Posted February 4, 2007 Report Share Posted February 4, 2007 Wow! I really like the look of the plants grown naturalistically like that, shows them off nicely! They seem to get good results from it too. Does anyone have experience of growing neps in beds? I have a few beds in the greenhouse but I haven't tried any CPs in them. I suppose you would have to dig out a large area and line it with pond liner/weed fabric then fill it with a peaty spagnum mix. This is something I'd quite like to try at some point, anyone got any ideas on how they do it successfully? Thanks for the excellent pics!

Marcel B. Posted February 5, 2007 Report Share Posted February 5, 2007 Hi, Great pix and great plants I think the Nepenthes on the last pic of the first post could also be a N. x briggsiana. Greetings MArcel Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

agamemnon Posted February 10, 2007 Report Share Posted February 10, 2007 great fotos.. so and I agree than yours N. ephippiata is not correct .. and correct is maybe N. x trusmadiensis... or lowii x ventricosa..

Pyro Posted February 12, 2007 Report Share Posted February 12, 2007 I agree than yours N. ephippiata is not correct .. and correct is maybe N. x trusmadiensis... or lowii x ventricosa.. Please trust me when I say that this plant is lowii x ventricosa. I am at ABG at least once a month (more usually 2-3 times a month) and I know and talk with a lot of the people there.
