Nepenthese spectabilis

oooh yes i see what you mean but this one is scarier! reminds me of snakeskin!!

nevertheless its still amazing, red leaves too?

You know I love the dark side!

Just ordered seeds for another Bat plant..................

oh that is amazing! even more spectacular than the one before!!!
especially 'the eyes in the flowers appear to follow you around the room'!!!

Things got a bit strange around here - I buggered my back and have been popping nuclear strength prescription painkillers! I could sit my laptop on my legs, but typing has been limited putting my card details in as I order more seeds that I don't need.
I've ordered seeds for a giant Lobelia - by giant I mean 9 metres in the right conditions! The right conditions are to be found in Kenya though...................

Sorry to hear about your back, it's so frustrating when that happens, not to say painful and debilitating.

9 metres?? Sounds like a giant beanstalk!

Google Lobelia gibberoa

looks like a forest! will it take over your street?

Just five seeds so probably not! Needs to come indoors for the winter too.

you [and your neighbours] should be relatively safe then.

how's the back?

Much better thanks! Chiropractors are gods!

good to know that! my dad had a lot of respect for them

Wow that is some plant.....

Gorgeous aint it!
