Simon Lumb Posted August 4, 2010 Report Share Posted August 4, 2010 Superb Dave, I find it hard to belive with plants like these you were becoming blase. The pale burbidgea is a gem. S Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

James O'Neill Posted August 5, 2010 Report Share Posted August 5, 2010 I wouldn't mind having a 'mess' like that! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Icarus Posted August 8, 2010 Report Share Posted August 8, 2010 WOW! does your greenhouse get full sun all the time or do you prevent that ? if so, how ? In my greenhouse the temperatures easyly become over 30°C in the summer and my neps don't really like that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In my greenhouse the temperatures easyly become over 30°C in the summer and my neps don't really like that. Yes, it gets full sun. There is alunimium mesh 40% shade, two forced ventilators and two hydrofoggers inside. That usually keeps it over 70% humidity and cooler than outside Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
flycatchers Posted August 8, 2010 Report Share Posted August 8, 2010 Great looking setup & plants Dave. The trouble with Nepenthes is I think that it is impossible to have a tidy greenhouse! I know mine isn't!! How are your Hairy hamata's doing? cheers bill Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How are your Hairy hamata's doing? cheers bill Thanks Bill, perhaps you're right The hairy hamatas are OK - the largest is vining, which is strange, because it isn't actually that large. I am still waiting for a significantly larger pitcher - it continues to be a difficult species to grow well and I don't think I have cracked it yet Dave Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
