corky Posted December 21, 2013 Author Report Share Posted December 21, 2013 (edited) my n.flava has finally produced a flava looking pitcher for me,and i hope has more on the way n.truncata with lots of nectar n.talangensis in flower,the plant hates my conditions and has not pitchered for years:-( d.puchella in flower,it should be producing gemmae by now,i have adjusted the photo period and hope that will do the trickand a favorite at the moment for obvious reasons,n.ovata:-D Edited December 21, 2013 by corky 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Devon.B Posted January 23, 2014 Report Share Posted January 23, 2014 Wow, very lush healthy looking plants. Especially the D. madagascariensis! I've never seen one so "bushy" before. Your N. ovata is looking impressive too. May I ask what conditions you're growing D. cunefolia in? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
corky Posted January 23, 2014 Author Report Share Posted January 23, 2014 thanks Devon,the cuneifolia is growing indoors on a south facing window sill ,it has now lost all red pigment in the winter sun but has grown quite large (looks pretty cool like alba)in the spring it will be placed outside in a plastic propagator with the front left open,window sill is pretty cool about 60 f ,i have tried a couple of times with leaf pullings but so far none have taken 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
corky Posted January 25, 2014 Author Report Share Posted January 25, 2014 d.hilaris ,this is the healthier looking plantlet and the pot with the main plant not looking as dewy for devon b d.cuneifolia has lost almost all red pigment in the winter sun Robc glamour pics think a bigger pot is in order this spring tillandsia tricolour flower (not the best pic) p.esseriana putting out loads of flowers ,i am well chuffed n.hamata looking hungry :-D 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Greg Allan Posted January 26, 2014 Report Share Posted January 26, 2014 That D hilaris is a great specimen. What conditions do you give it? I killed one recently... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
corky Posted January 27, 2014 Author Report Share Posted January 27, 2014 (edited) Hi Greg.I am stumbling my way through growing hilaris.Its in a 50/50 peat perlite mix and growing on a chilly single glaze south facing window sill.In summer i let the pot dry alot and the plant stopped growing but two small plantlets grew from the base.I now water about 10 mm in a tray and let it dry between watering (funny i see you are from harborne i am working in wentworth rd today.small world).When i dried out the pot i still watered once a week but no tray,the plant first slowed in growth and the plantlets appeared and then all plants formed a loose dormant bud,i then after the hottest months returned them to the tray,i thought they would never resume normal growth,and the smallest plantlet is only just showing signs of normal growth,so more luck than judgement Edited January 28, 2014 by corky Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Devon.B Posted January 29, 2014 Report Share Posted January 29, 2014 Very nice robcantleyi. Looks like it has had a recent growth spurt. Thanks for the info on D. cunefolia. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
