Meoky 40oz Tumbler with Handle, Leak-proof Lid and Straw, Insulated Coffee Mug Stainless Steel Travel Mug, Keeps Cold for 34 Hours or Hot for 10 Hours (Fairyland)

Product Information

Seeds (Easy) - The only soil you can use is a 'Carnivorous' labelled compost, as other mixes will retain too many chemicals that'll burn the cases of the seeds. Set the seeds on top of the soil's surface, resisting the temptation to compact it. Maintain evenly moist compost and allow the excess water to freely drain from the pot's base to prevent water-logging. The ideal location for successful germination is in a bright, indirect setting with temperatures above 18℃ (64℉) with bottom-heat. Keep the pot in a transparent bag to provide a stable level of humidity, along with longer-lasting soil moisture. Germination may take up to three months, so don't discard any unsuccessful seeds until this threshold has been surpassed. Remove the bag once the seedlings produce their second leaf and then split them into their own 5cm (2 inches) pots after a further month. HELLO, COLD DRINKS! With double-wall vacuum insulation, Meoky travel coffee mug beats the heat and keeps you cool. HELLO, "COOL" GUYS!

If this is not Helen's Nepenthes, it certainly will be for all botanists. What botanist would not be filled with admiration if, after a long journey, he should find this wonderful plant. In his astonishment past ills would be forgotten when beholding this admirable work of the Creator! [translated from Latin by Harry Veitch] [24] N.bicalcarata provides space in the hollow tendrils of its upper pitchers for the carpenter ant Camponotus schmitzi to build nests. The ants take larger prey from the pitchers, which may benefit N.bicalcarata by reducing the amount of putrefaction of collected organic matter that could harm the natural community of infaunal species that aid the plant's digestion. [35] Most nepenthes species, particularly highland nepenthes, grow and perform best at temperatures ranging from 18 to 27 degrees Celsius during the day and 7 to 18 degrees Celsius at night. Pruning

How does this translate into the UK home environment? Well, thankfully‘lowland’Nepenthes are reasonably adaptable plantsand can forgive the odd mistake or two. Here at Hampshire CarnivorousPlants, we have had success with ‘lowland’ Nepenthesunder a range of conditions. Please see the below heading ‘Care’ forsomeguidance. Some growers have taken to growing their Nepenthes in terrariums under grow lights, with great success! Other growers cultivate their plants in heated outdoor greenhouses or conservatories with sheets of 50% shade cloth to protect their plants from heat and strong direct sunlight. Plants can be propagated by seed, cuttings, and tissue culture. Seeds are usually sown on damp chopped Sphagnum moss, or on sterile plant tissue culture media once they have been properly disinfected. The seeds generally become nonviable soon after harvesting, so seed are not usually the preferred method of propagation. A 1:1 mixture of orchid medium with moss or perlite has been used for germination and culture. Seed may take two months to germinate, and two years or more to yield mature plants. Cuttings may be rooted in damp Sphagnum moss in a plastic bag or tank with high humidity and moderate light. They can begin to root in one to two months and start to form pitchers in about six months. Tissue culture is now used commercially and helps reduce collection of wild plants, as well as making many rare species available to hobbyists at reasonable prices. Nepenthes species are considered threatened or endangered plants and all of them are listed in CITES Appendix II, with the exception of N. rajah and N. khasiana which are listed in CITES Appendix I. [59] The CITES listing means all international trade (including in parts and derivatives) is controlled by the CITES permitting system, with wild

Nepenthes spp. is a perennial, carnivorous flowering plant native to the tropical regions of the Asian continent. In 2006, Meoky was founded with the mission of creating drinkware for everyone and building a must-have drinkware brand. The second species to be described was N.distillatoria, the Sri Lankan endemic. In 1677, Danish physician Thomas Bartholin made brief mention of it under the name Miranda herba, Latin for "marvellous herb". [47] Three years later, Dutch merchant Jacob Breyne referred to this species as Bandura zingalensium, after a local name for the plant. [48] Bandura subsequently became the most commonly used name for the tropical pitcher plants, until Linnaeus coined Nepenthes in 1737. [15] The genus Nepenthes is mostly found within the Malay Archipelago, with the greatest biodiversity found on Borneo, Sumatra, and the Philippines, [28] [29] especially in the Borneo montane rain forests. The full range of the genus includes Madagascar ( N.madagascariensis and N.masoalensis), the Seychelles ( N.pervillei), Sri Lanka ( N.distillatoria), and India ( N.khasiana) in the west to Australia ( N.mirabilis, N.rowanae, N.parvula, and N.tenax) and New Caledonia ( N.vieillardii) in the southeast. Most species are restricted to very small ranges, including some found only on individual mountains. These limited distributions and the inaccessibility of the regions often means some species go decades without being rediscovered in the wild (e.g. N.deaniana, which was rediscovered 100 years after its initial discovery). About 10 species have population distributions larger than a single island or group of smaller islands. Nepenthes mirabilis has the distinction of being the most widely distributed species in the genus, ranging from Indochina and throughout the Malay Archipelago to Australia. [5] [30] [31] Highland’ Nepenthes may be grown at lower temperatures of around 21c during the day. Unlike their ‘lowland’ cousins, they appreciate the drop in night temperature to lows of 10c – 12c. These night time drops slow down their metabolism at night, which they need for healthy and vigorous growth. The ambient humidity should again be kept at least 60% but ideally higher.You should also consider moving the plant outside once in a while so it can catch and feed on its own prey. This will help improve the general well-being of the plant. Bauer, U.; Bohn, H.F.; Federle, W. (2008).
