After a lot of hard work I was able to get one of my most wanted Nepenthes, N. Macrophylla. Although Macrophyllas are readily available in a small TC size from AW, I decided to get one that was a lot larger for only double the price. It’s a lot better to have a Macro that’s [...]

About a month ago I was able to obtain a N. hamata several months out of Wistuba’s nursery. Although I don’t have any photos currently, the plant is working on it’s 4th leaf in my care (the photo above was when I got it). Now that Ive owned it for a month, I can conclude [...]

Looks like the new veitchi arrived on friday… it looks great!! The plant is the best out of a selection of very striped veitchi K’s from Exotica Plants. I was able to squeeze it in the HL chamber. This plant should do very well and hopefully I can coax it to flower by placing a [...]

I saw this complex hybrid and decided that I must get it for my birthday. Anyway it arrived looking very healthy and showing interesting coloration in the pitchers. This is one of the most colorful Trusmadiensis hybrids Ive seen, espically at this young age! I highly recommend getting one. These should show some interesting characeristics [...]

Just received this lil’ guy in the mail. The pitchers look promising! I wonder what it’ll look like in a years time lol.      

Most of the plants have arrived yesterday so now all I have to do is get them potted up…I wil be posting them 1 by 1 as they are potted. First off, Nepenthes X Dormuse , which is a extensive hybrid of [N. (ventricosa x bellii) x dubia]. I was able to look in some older [...]

Finally…a lovely rarity to add to my HL collection! It was supposed to arrive on April 28th (my birthday)  but what the heck )) As you can see the plant is a very fast viner with a lot of pitchers. Here’s some pics of the “toilet shaped” oddities.     Mini me!       [...]

Yesterday I just got a fresh new Nepenthes in the mail that should make a great edition to my collection and should be a good candidate in contests . The plant is a cross with the famous toothed hybrid N X trusmadiensis (N. lowii X macrophylla) and the recently rediscovered N. thorelii. It’s not completely [...]

Looks like my rare Nepenthes Jamban seeds arrived from Germany…hopefully I can get these guys to sprout!     The Package they came in… More updates (hopefully) to come!   Lance Any questions or comments? If so email me at lance.plater1@gmail.com

After seeing some wonderful photos from this sought after hybrid, I decided to grab the last one. This hybrid is very rare due to its beautiful color and vigorous growth. Usually, the only plants can be obtained as cuttings from big nurseries, and are usually 200$ or more. One time, a mature division sold on [...]
