Very informative for a beginner like me. I used to browse the internet to find these information and by the time I finish I forget everything. But this like all in one video. Very helpful.
Oh wow! The Ventata, St Gaya and Briggsiana were my first three neps!! I bought them from my local nursery. They only had the scientific names so it’s cool to learn their more common names! Thanks for the awesome info
Thank you for this! I had been trying to figure out what I had for years because I bought mine from a hardware store and it just said, “Pitcher Plant”. Now I am 100% positive it’s a Miranda.
I got one from a cutting I made from my ex her plant. It was in a bad state. It only had one all dried up pitcher that had a panthera pattern. And it wad very tall and tried to climb. (She just didn't have anything it could climb on) My cutting doesn't have pitchers yet. But the leaves are long, they get wider before ending in a smooth pointy tip where the pitchers come from. It also has very small hairs. Mine is just starting to develop pitchers, so I'm curious what it'll look like.
Amazing. I'm a total beginner. during this video, you inspired me to sketch out and identify different parts of my plant and to mindfully think about the features of my plant. I'm sure it's just a common home variety but I learned a ton about my plant while watching this video. Looking forward to learning more during this summer with my first Napenthes.
Here in the Philippines, Ventrata is really hard to find but Alata and Graciliflora is very common. I dont know why they wont often cultivate ventrata here since it is easy to grow.
Great Video which helped me a lot to get a first overview. With this I could safely identify my Miranda that I once won at a fair and since then is now my most popular plant for many years:-). Thanks a lot for your work on all the nice videos.
There is pretty good evidence, and a number of collectors I know believe that x ventrata is more likely a hybrid between ventricosa and gracilifora (which was only relatively recently considered a separate species from alata)
this is very helpful information! most of mine have come with ID but i just received 3 unidentified seedlings. now i know what to look for in, hopefully, 6 months or so.
Yes i research the main species first. Like i got a tagged "noid x (rafflesiana x viking) for very cheap cos seller couldn't remember the noid species, and I was trying to find out what it could be, and arrived that it resembles a mirabilis after looking also at his other neps as he grows from seeds, to see which seeds he possibly got. But it is still juvenile, need iD again when it matures.
Great video man. I've learned a lot from the vid. Can you make a video for nepenthes hybridization guide? Like what traits are dominant and most probably retained by their offspring? Thanks
Don't get Gardencenter and others buy the Plants from a Seller? I mean seriously they have to get the "Name" from them or not? It means to me that the acutal Growers don't know what they're growing or what? But yes I also have seen the Store which the Gardencenters get their Plants from are also selling their Plants on Amazon in Germany and the also classify the Ventrata as a Alata. In April my Gardenceter will have carnivoures Plants again and I heard that they could have a Nepenthes x Miranda and maybe a Nepenthes x Gaya. Last Year they just had a little Ventrata which I bought because I haven't had one in my Collection because until then I had only a Nepenthes x Bloody Mary, so it was also my second Nepenthes. My Ventrata is also a fast grower because she is almost bigger then my Bloody Mary and was at the Beginnig of last Years Spring much smaller and had only four little Pitchers.
@@WindowsillNepenthes Thank you. I was wondering if they were juveniles. I am new to nephentes and it is surprising how similar looking they are in their juvenile stage.
@@WindowsillNepenthes alright then gotta wait hehe i feed the plant a tiny worm every week in one of its 4 pitchers so i guess it shouldnt take that long
@@somedude7040 That's super dry... Even for us, it's recommended to have 30-40% in house during winter. I don't know if Nepenthes can pitcher with so little humidity in fact. I never got that dry.
@@WindowsillNepenthes, yes, that's what I'm afraid of. I did have success with N x 'Velvet,' but I haven't found it again and I lost the original plant (I don't remember how). I'm gonna try again with some hybrids. I have N x 'Gaya' and N x 'Bloody Mary' basal shoots. I'll give it a shot with one of each if they root by August or September. I'll let you know what happens.

that was crazy instructive! such a great nepenthes class!
Thanks

Just starting with these plants... happy to see I check off all the 3 plants in the beginning. So hopefully it will be a succes.
Keep makin these badass videos bro
Knowledge is power!!!
Sure I will :)
That Josh guy is pretty cool ;) haha very nice and educational video! Thanks for the feature
Haha yes you are :)
How do you grow this hybrid?

Nice mug you have there at 0:11, I'd love to have a Windowsill Nepenthes mug too😁
Haha that's a project. I would love to find a way to sell them but not for crazy shipping price. ;)
Excellent vid Remy! loved it. Regards Duncan
Glad you enjoyed it
Great Video which helped me a lot to get a first overview. With this I could safely identify my Miranda that I once won at a fair and since then is now my most popular plant for many years:-). Thanks a lot for your work on all the nice videos.
Ah ha got it ,plant identified!!!! Thank you!!!
Well done 👍
interesting, looks like my “alata” has actually been a “ventrata” all along!! three years of calling it the wrong name 😅
That's normal! General nurseries and shops keep calling them wrong. ;)
@@WindowsillNepenthes interesting to think of all the other plants that could be named incorrectly! great video, love your content ❤️
There is pretty good evidence, and a number of collectors I know believe that x ventrata is more likely a hybrid between ventricosa and gracilifora (which was only relatively recently considered a separate species from alata)
And for old folks like I, it's very hard when species change name lol 😆
Never heard anyone say that
this is very helpful information! most of mine have come with ID but i just received 3 unidentified seedlings. now i know what to look for in, hopefully, 6 months or so.
Except some species, a 2 inch pitcher will be required for a decent ID ;)
okay! so since their pitchers are currently about 1/4", i'll know what to look for in 6 YEARS or so 🤣🤣🤣
@@kozlinda oh no, they are slow the first 2 years and then it faster.
Great video!!!

Yes we will see that when I'll have flowers and make my own seeds for sure 👍

If you can get a Miranda go for it. 😃 I'm looking for it but for now I couldn't find it... maybe this year...
@@WindowsillNepenthes Yes Maybe. In an other Town next to mine they had last Year only a Ventrata and a Bloody Mary.
This is helpful because I am probably going to a greenhouse this weekend and they probably don't label them right or even at all.
I have a miranda with two basal shoots starting on it!
That's a great species.
How do you grow it? Windowsill?
@@WindowsillNepenthes in a tank with lights!
Great video mate.. 👍🦘
I guess I have some form of Ventrata..although it's not 100% like the ones you showed here. In any case, thank you for the info!
Is nephenthese maxima a good choice
Yes sure 😊 it's quite adaptable and comes with a lot of variations. I have the black peristome and the wavy leaves 😉
I am going back through my purchase invoices hopefully I will find the name of the one pitcher plant which I have no idea what it is🙄🍃
Hi, could you tell me what was the nepenthes in the pictures in 10:30 from upper middle and 10:38 far left?
For the 10:30 I believe it's the rob x mollis (at a juvenile stage). For the 10:38 it's spathulata x spectabilis (at a juvenile stage).
@@WindowsillNepenthes Thank you. I was wondering if they were juveniles. I am new to nephentes and it is surprising how similar looking they are in their juvenile stage.
@@hennisnellman8542 oh yes. That's why we have to wait for mature pitchers to be sure. ;)
Caught me... I asked before I checked!
I have a healthy small nepenthes with pitchers that are barely 3 centimeters big. its rather new, is it possible to identify at that size?
Below 5 to 8 cm, it's hard. Because some species have "juvenile pitchers shape".
@@WindowsillNepenthes alright then gotta wait hehe i feed the plant a tiny worm every week in one of its 4 pitchers so i guess it shouldnt take that long
Most species are very distinct if you do your research. Hybrids are iffy unless there are showing one of those distinct characteristics
I agree :) It's a guessing game :)
Awesome video, very helpful! Could you make a video of those hybrids (or species) that can grow on very low humidity, such as N x 'Gentle Velvet"?
I could try but the list will be long. What do you call "very low humidity"?
@@WindowsillNepenthes, low humidity would be 20-30% maybe under 20, too, if there are any candidates.
@@somedude7040 That's super dry... Even for us, it's recommended to have 30-40% in house during winter. I don't know if Nepenthes can pitcher with so little humidity in fact. I never got that dry.
@@WindowsillNepenthes, yes, that's what I'm afraid of. I did have success with N x 'Velvet,' but I haven't found it again and I lost the original plant (I don't remember how).

@@somedude7040 good idea to start and try with strong unexpensive hybrid ;)
Love your chanle i am gona get a rajah and a vechii candy dreams x striped brorni
Sounds like a great hybrid!
I bought a nepenthes inermis!!!
Does it looks like inermis yet or it's too small?
I ask because a n. duria I bought ended up be a n. isumae lol
@@WindowsillNepenthes it came with a pitcher already developing
@@WindowsillNepenthes and its already really big to tell
I think its vining
I saw the bill bailey one on Amazon. Then again its probably for US. Hope this helps.
Do you have an email address I have one I have no clue about and I am very curious. Listed as lowland pitcher plant
Hi, I Facebook for contact :)
I can help for sure, but I'm not 100% right haha
Ventrata. But you mistakenly wrote ventata.
Oops, my bad. Good catch
@@WindowsillNepenthes Oh. U r so dear to us as our teacher and guide.
