Daniel O. Posted October 27, 2007 Report Share Posted October 27, 2007 Hi François, wonderful plant. Do you know the location of the plant? Best regards, Dani Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sockhom Posted October 27, 2007 Author Report Share Posted October 27, 2007 (edited) Hi ! Thanks for the kind words . This plant comes from Murosipan tepui. The flower is pink, Aidan. It's hard to get the right colour with those tubes. The biggest pitcher is 25 cm height. I've got this specimen back in september 2006 at the EEE of Bonn. The plant had only 3 pitchers which barely reached 10 or 12 cm (already a good size, yes). Here is a picture of the plant in 2006 (the unopened pitcher wasn"t there when i bought it): One year later, i've been rewarded with four growing points (14-15 pitchers), pitchers are 20-25 cm lengh and the plant is flowering. I've got to say i never thought it would grow so fast! Friendly, François. Edited October 27, 2007 by Sockhom Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
