Nepenthes ampullaria heaven

Mr Apis from Thailand posted a few pictures of his world-class Nepenthes ampullaria collection on pitcher-plants.com, and Sehtnepen was so kind to create a collage from these photos:


This is hands-down the most stunning array of N. ampullaria varieties I've ever seen - talk about a man with ten dark-green thumbs!

Thank you, Apis and Sehtnepen, for permitting me to post your creations here

Borneo Trip

Just got back from my conference/field trip adventure in Kuching (Sarawak, East Malaysia, Borneo). If you like steamy jungles, colonial fortresses and shaved ice-cream with coconut milk, check out my photo reports neatly divided by topic, so you can skip the parts you don't want to see!

New arrival: N. glabrata

The unusually warm winter of 06/07, with its sometimes very warm days and cool nights, has lured me into impulse-obtaining a whole slew of highland Nepenthes. They're doing very well now....let's hope I won't regret it once April officially rings in the summer.

Anyway, I finally managed to find a n. glabrata. Boy, she sure is dinky!
