Altair Posted November 26, 2009 Report Share Posted November 26, 2009 Hi, my N. campanulata is flowering. I'm very noob at nepenthes and this is the first plant flowering, so I'm not sure on what to do. The plant is small, should I cut the flower? If anyone is interested in pollen swap the plant looks male. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Clue Posted November 27, 2009 Report Share Posted November 27, 2009 I think that it's fine to let your N. campanulata flower. The species never truly vines, so it stays in rosettes and flowers quite a bit. That is a very healthy plant, congratulations! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Leo Posted December 6, 2009 Report Share Posted December 6, 2009 Looks male. You might consider having a peek at Dicon's post (pinned topic). Nice little plant. Leo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave Evans Posted December 7, 2009 Report Share Posted December 7, 2009 (edited) how can you see that it's male?I never know what my plants are.. :) thanks in advance Take a close look at: 1) The overall shape of the inflorescence. Males tend to be conical shaped. Females are bunted or more oval. 2) The shape of the individual flowers. Males are round, spherical. Females tend to be more elongated with an oval shape.
