Second interesting thought, if I prune them (always assuming they do well) I
could sell the smaller plants on eBay or have a plant sale now and then Shell "Myrmecodia" wrote in message om... "Shell" wrote in message . com... From what everyone is telling me I should have little trouble growing these along with my orchids and tillandsias and such. I should have no trouble keeping the humidity up and have plenty of light, my house doesn't get too warm, and as long as they don't get 100 feet long I shoult have planty of room. My only worry would be bugs for them to eat Sounds good. Since you are in Houston, you might even be able to put them outside in shade during the summer. If they get too long, you can always prune the vines and root the cuttings. I like to wait until there is a second basal rosette befoer pruning the main vine, but the cuttings typically root without much trouble in the Spring or Summer. If you don't have an easy supply of home grown bugs, check your local petshop for a product called "can o' crickets." I kid you not. As the name suggests, it is a can of crickets that you can keep in the fridge or freezer., just the right size for feeding Nepenthes. Nick -- --- Outgoing mail is certified Virus Free.
