VERY proud of my little windowsill nepenthes! (Didn’t come labeled, but I think it’s a ventricosa. Maybe a high red clone?) I’ve only had it for a little more than a year and its pitchers have changed so much- all the little fringes are gone from the front of the pitchers, and the rims are increasingly flared. Also my small forest of cape sundew, of course.

#Had a scare this spring where the nepenthes’ leaves started discoloring quickly. D:#Turns out it just needed repotted though whew. Was pleased as punch most of its leaved recovered just fine.#The grower warned me it’d need repotted in a year or so and damn he wasn’t kidding.#This is the only one I’ve ever had and it had been doing so well I was SO worried it was giving up the ghost. But alls well that ends well.#The capensis started out as one plant many years ago. (6ish??)#Intrepid- it survived me bumbling through figuring out where best to put it. Reseeded in its own pot after I got it enough sun.#Those are its million babies I split into separate pots this spring. I don’t even think they noticed the repot.
