tish Posted June 22, 2015 Author Report Share Posted June 22, 2015 Of all common Carnivorous plants, Nepenthes is one of them then I've been resisting. Space is a problem for me always. Recently, I've taking a peek into the Nepenthe's world, and little did I know - I've been poisoned. I already have the N. Gracilis, N Ventrata, N Rebecca Soper. Last few days, I've traded and bought a few more N. Rafflesiana, N. Miranda cutting and N. Ampullaria My current N. Rebecca Soper N. Miranda basal cutting - Nice pitcher N. Rafflesiana 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tish Posted July 5, 2015 Author Report Share Posted July 5, 2015 5 July : Byblis Liniflora flower bloom The new Byblis Liniflora which I just bought, the flower did not bloom for me on the first day. Perhaps it was a little stress after a quick repot. But on the second day it did!! It was sunday and I had the opportunity to take good photos with my DSLR set. Please enjoy! First with just frame of almost whole plant, perhaps 10cm tall, 3-4 flowers. Here's a closed up, Anther and Stigma present. Pollen too? Closer view to see if we can identify where the pollens are? In the centre? 2 views more on the whole flower. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
