  • Let's go through all of the Nepenthes veitchii in my collection and see why it is my favorite species. From lowland to highland, gold to stripes, there is so much to love about this incredible carnivorous plant!
    Edit: the caption at 3:08 should read "Bareo BE-3734"
    All plants featured in this video were purchased as small plants from the following US-based nurseries:

      @Florabundance I posted it on youtube shorts if you're curious of what the plant look like.
      Also, the BE-3734 tend to be more light tolerant than the BE-4033. From personal experience the BE-3734 grows faster and can hold more pitchers than the BE-4033. BE-4033 leaves tend to turn red under the light than BE-3734. Both are growing beside each other with the same type of lights at a very similar distance. As for the BE-4068, the growth speed is in-between BE-3734 and BE-4033, the stripes aren't as bright as the BE-3734 yet.

    • @florabundance
      @florabundance  Рік тому

      If I remember correctly, I originally bought mine as a medium, and they are pretty slow to size up. Once they have enough roots and leaf surface for photosynthesis, the jumps really start.

    Any reason you went with orchid transparent pots versus a standard net pot ? Did you want light to get the roots ?

    • @florabundance
      @florabundance  Рік тому

      I like the additional air flow to the roots that the orchid pots allow. Once they grow out of the 6inch orchid pots, I plan to bump them to 6 or 8 inch black net bottom pots. I have noticed that algae sometimes grows on the moss that is exposed to light, but haven’t seen any negative effects on the plants.

    Is there a good fertilizer? I can use on my nepenthes through the winter. I’ve heard of using orchid fertilizer, Maxsea. or just anything in general that would boost the size of the pitchers?

    • @florabundance
      @florabundance  6 місяців тому +1

      I use Maxsea at a 1/4 strength, twice a month as a foliar feed. Higher fertilization rates can lead to stronger leaf growth, but at the expense of larger pitchers
