mine is quite a matured plant and has quite a few branches...it currently has about 14 pitchers (or more) of various sizes all over. it`s one of my first neps from eons ago. i guess in saying eternity, you probably mean like 2 years more ? heheh, it`ll grow quite fast Alvin....

one of your first Neps?? you must have been like 'ah, its just another pitcher forming'  . I would have freaked out if I can get 14 pitchers of that size in my garden! I still love my first Nep, my big ol' raff  . got it when I was in lower secondary school, all the years it has never failed to pitcher and grow offshoots. |

thx..... alvin : i used to be able to display the pitchers around the pot in a circular fashion when the nep was smaller ( for my own satisfaction ) but now it`s much much bigger, i can`t `arrange` the pitchers anymore. is there a pic of your old Raf ? hey, it`s almost similiar name to my ol`car...Ralfie. heheh. here`s an old pic of it from a previous post :  |

haha....that's a cute name for your car ;D Usually I also arrange my raff pitchers for those with tendrils trailing the ground, I just lift them up and tuck them in between some support (stems) or just make them sit on surfaces of pots. If I leave them forming on the ground, those *@#$%$* squirrels will get at them again. Here is my good ol' Raff. It's been telling me stories during the time when it was young....*_* .....ok knock it off *raps head* ;D  |
