i actually feed mine. mine is indoors but as i have a large number of reptiles as well, i feed mine 1-3 large crickets every few months.
I saw these little cup plants at a nursery with my neighbor. She said she'd get me one if I did research on how to care for them so here I am!
I think they were the second one you showed that you have 💚
also i live in australia and i have 1 outdoors in a hanging pot that i have literally never touched. i have it in a self watering pot, all i do is top up the water every couple of days during summer but other than that, in the last 4 years, its grown really well
Great video! I have been growing Nepenthes for a long time, and can say that you provide very good advice.
FYI, I grow my N. ‘St. Gaya’ in lowland conditions and it’s doing quite well! You know what? I’ll post a video about it soon. You’ll see. 🙂
I had a few carnivorous plants but didn't necessarily want a nepenthes because I figured that it wouldn't like my temperate climate.
Still, I felt sorry for it at a random chain store so I bought it.
I was pleasantly surprised how fast it started growing new leaves and pitchers given some more light than in the store and a bit more water.
Its pitchers are so small that bugs can't really fit in the lid yet but I they do seem to be filling up with digestive juices so I put a fly in there.
Very cool plant.
It’s so nice when you take a chance on something you normally wouldn’t, and turn out loving it! That’s the same story for so many of my interesting plants as well. Well done for the care of your plant, and hope it continues growing well for you 😍
Thank you, very informative.
Thank you so much, appreciate it & glad you enjoyed ✨🌱
I'm happy to see this video, new to neps myself. I dont not live in europe. However, we are similar in latitude(I've got a rafflesiana white and a viking x ampullaria black miracle.) Thanks for all you do on this channel! ✨️💞
Such an exciting time ☺️ They sound amazing! Will keep an eye out for those myself ✨ Thank you so much for the support I really appreciate it 🌱🤍
This video is amazing because it taught me how to take care of a picture plan😊😊😊😊❤❤🎉🎉
Beautiful
You’ve sold me. 👍🏻 Those red pitchers are just so beautiful and so cool. I’ll be looking out for one to try out.
Haha great!! Best of luck I’m sure you’ll love growing them 🥰
Hi Ami, this has been interesting although I doubt I can ever grow Nepenthes. I’m fascinated by the pitchers and their beautiful colours & shapes. Thanks for sharing your knowledge of these plants. Cheers
Hello! Ah I really appreciate you watching regardless, maybe in time you can try again ☺️ Thank you so much for the support as always ✨🌱
Nice Gaya!
Thank you! 😁🌱
Flowers won't help with identification, but maybe you mean pitchers? - Nice crash course by the way. If you want to try fancier species try Nepenthes truncata, maxima, and even veitchii
Yes that was an error 😅 Thanks! I’m definitely no expert as well so it’s just from my experience so far. Thanks for the recommendations will look into those 🌱 Have just checked out your channel & subscribed also, look forward to learning more about nepenthes ☺️
@@amyadwan Thanks👍
I finally got pitchers on mine, and they just opened up. Now I have an ant problem. Does anyone know how to keep the ants away from my pitchers?
@@carmonk9243 You can use insecticide but ants will feed the pitchers. Did you looked inside?
As long as conditions aren’t too bad they will acclimate, plants want to live
They do indeed! And why not try to give them what they love ☺️
Whenever you prune your Nepenthes you could use them for cuttings. I have a gaya and took four cuttings. Two of the four rooted.
My friend just gave me her trimmings and now I have 7 mature Nepenthes and a prop box of nodes 7 months later ❤
Thank you for this, I’ve always been a big fan of all carnivorous but Nepenthes have given me trouble!
No problem at all Jason ☺️ Hopefully they grow well for you from here on!
A very fascinating and informative video. That cutting I have has done absolutely nothing except start to dry out even though it is water with higher humidity. I still cannot figure out where it is supposed to grow root but it is not dead yet. Not sure if this is going to get me into Nepenthes but who knows.😀Thank you for this though as I really enjoyed it.
Thank you so much Michael! Well look at least it’s not dead yet there is some hope… I have all fingers crossed for you and hope it starts to show something soon 😁 Thanks for watching 🌱🤍
❤❤❤❤❤
❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Hi! You mention knowing what variety you have...my husband just bought me a pitcher plant, but I can't seem to identify it after much googling! The plant leaves are large and plentiful, but the pitchers are small, maybe around 3-inches, and they are just green...no red. Any ideas?
Thanks for the video. Very informative. One question about watering: do you just use tap water or do you have to purchase filtered water?
Filtered or distilled
Rain water
St Gaya is actually a cross between Khasiana and ventracosa x maxima
Thanks for letting me know! 🌱
my nephentes bloodymary doesn't grow pitchers yet i need help, its already may they infront of the window in sun
If you want some more than but the basil shoots off and plant them
Why is her eyebrow doing the People's Eyebrow??? Love it! If YOU SMELLLLLL, WHAT MY PLANT IS EATING! 🪨
Can they go into self watering pots?
Yes I have mine in a self water pot and it has been growing very very well, keeps the soil wet and they love that.
Heeeeelp!!!! Mine seem to be drying out and turning brown...😢😭 The cups are turning brown. Should I cut them off?
it’s best to leave them be the plant will suck nutrients out of the old pitchers in an attempt to survive /make new ones, make sure you are using distilled water and your medium has no nutrients
I'm new to the carnivorous plant scene and have watered all of mine
I have a question Mini greenhouse 58 cm x 40 cm Drosera seeds 100 seeds (Mix)
1.) Should we feed them manually at some point? as the domes are closed in their seedling stage to maintain humidity, leaving no access for any insects to get in.
2._Should we open the dome every couple of days for them to get new air?
3.) I have been told that boiled and then cooled water is fine for Sundews. Can anyone confirm this?
4. ) Can I water the sundew filter
I use distilled or rainwater for my carnivorous plants. Brita filter still has A LOT of minerals in it that is harmful for carnivorous plants. Heard that zero water is really the only filter that can be used for these plants.
There is a plant on your windowsill in this video behind your picture plant, it’s red. What is that?!
It’s a begonia ‘Linda Dawn’! 🥰🥰
I didn't know you had add water to the pitchers
You don't NEED to. You can, but it's not necessary unless the pitchers all spilled during transport.
Can a leaf grow more than one picture
No
She does not understand about that nepenthes. It goes deeper than that so I’m gonna make this very easy. Yes, they do need humidity. Good lighting you could use a white LED grow light or a for a fluorescent grow light plus they need good ventilation just take a fan and put it by your plant not directly on it but at an angle where it’s not too far away, but not too close. Another thing is depending on where you live where I live in lacks of humidity, so I have to make a soil mix that holds more moisture coconut husk 15 or long Fighbird, Spagna Moss and perlite
Nothing new, just some old and desperate mansplaining here.... next!
Yeah you can do that or you can go all out like me and test everything. Light levels, humidity, soil PH, water PH (plus know it's alkalinity). Just thinking about it now, I think you meant long fiber sphagnum moss and that will have a neutral PH and nepenthes like acidic. I only have 1 nepenthes, I'm usually into Rhododendrons and stuff. I'm about to get one which will need sensors which send alerts to my phone, even experts in the field have stopped trying to grow it.
@@cmccordhow’s her plants tho
Her neps seem to be doing just fine, she must be doing something right
Her plants give the appearance of being very well understood.
