Phantom Posted September 30, 2012 Report Share Posted September 30, 2012 We all know that some plants can sulk after repotting, moving position etc etc. I'd like to share with you the first 'real' pitcher my S. x (leucophylla x popei) has produced since I bought it. To it's lower right you can see the usual half-hearted pitchers it has always produced. How long has this plant sulked for ? Well, I bought it from a garden centre (- back in the days when Marston Exotics supplied garden centres) on the 16th May 1992 ! Only took the bloody thing 20 years 4 months !! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
