Intermediate Nepenthes

Nepenthes izumae x trusmadiensis

This plant's newest pitcher is colored like a sunset, and like a sunset, it is awe inspiring. This really is among my favorite plants. The pitchers have such a nice shape and the peristome is well defined. My plant is a cutting originally grown on a balcony in San Diego (if I have my info correct), so it is well adapted to humidity-less environments. As such, it had zero problems settling into my intermediate area, which, hopefully, has a bit more humidity than San Diego.

Nepenthes spathulata x talangensis

This cross, which also lives in my intermediate area, is not overly impressive at the moment, but this is one of the first pitchers it produced for me in my care. When I picked it up, it was a disease-ridden mess but it had the cutest pitchers. After months and months or hard work and treatment, it is now healthy and it producing some great little pitchers.

Nepenthes robcantleyi

It's still small, but my Nepenthes robcantleyi is growing steadily. Based upon its growth, my guess is that it will really take off once I get the room to relocate it into a bigger pot. Overall, I've found that this species is just as easy as Nepenthes truncata, but much more colorful at an early stage.
