Hi guys, As my grow shelf becomes fuller and fuller...whenever I try to manuover the spray bottle around inside...my hand hits the talang that is in the center of the tray. As a result...it acutally stalled for a little while and is finally starting to grow. During that period...I noticed this: The dots on the leaves which appear only on the older leaves (3 leaves older than the growth point) got even more intense. Please see this. What can I do?? Is it rust or is it leaf spot fungus? (CLICK TO ENLARGE) Can i just use a standard fungicide spray?? We have a spray called DEFENDER available: Thank you for any help. varun

Just excellent! Fabulous to see some nice pics of these three species. Once again the ramispina proves itself to be among the most beautiful highland species that is a must have in every collection. I can't wait for the leaves of mine to get more redder.

Fantastic! just fantastic. This species is unbelievable. Too bad availability is limited and the plant is hard to grow.

NEPENTHES OF BORNEO | 2006 reprint by Charles ClarkeIntroduction: Borneo is a hotspot for nepenthes with aroud 32 species endemic to the island. They include plants such as the coveted N.rajah, N.villosa to everyone's favourite easy lowlander: N.bicalcarata. The following book is a culmination of Charles Clarke's studies from Borneo. Structure: Please bear in mind that there are 200 colour photographs in the book. But that is not the purpose of this book. This book is definately meant for the nepenthes hardcore enthusiast. The book has around 200 pages which is pretty low count atleast for a nep fanatic like me, but the quality is excellent. It starts off with some information regarding the nepenthes genus with studies on pitcher life span, pitcher formation case studies and so on. Later it dvelves into a section dedicating a page for each of the nepenthes species on the island. The last few pages then discusses some of the famous hybrids from the island as well. Value: The book is priced at 90$ (incl shipping) for us canadians which is from Orchid books in quebec. It is a hefty price for just 200 pages of info with pics that you could probably find online. But, do note that the pics included are never before seen and offer a spectacular window into the true heaven of nepenthes. However, for the information provided its definately a masterpiece. I personally love it and think it is a keeper. Conclusion: Fantastic book. Talks about the common species I mentioned and also about the enigmatic & species that we can only dream of such as N.edwardsiana. Magnificent & a must buy for a nepenthes hardcore hobbyist.9/10(note: I take off one mark for the price as I still think its a pretty big dent in the pocket)

Really fantastic resource. Thanks a lot guys! wow! If I may have one comment, the titles are a bit hard to see. If you guys need some help with developing a bit of graphics, I am willing to volunteer. Especially, if you want a nice blending...logo banner for your nursery Sam. Check out the forum on ocps.proboards78.com/ I designed the skin and banner for it.
