Free to good homes

The ungainly monster pictured below is my indestructible Nepenthes ventrata. Originally a $20 dollar purchase at a craft fair, this beast will not die. I have baked it, frozen it, dried it, and drowned it, and it keeps coming back. Well, this puppy is way overdo for a haircut so I am giving away the cuttings. There are 3 growth points, and those cuttings will go to the first three people. There are probably at least 4 or 5 more cuttings that will give a couple of leaves, so I'm going to put the total at 8. I will cover shipping if you can't, but if you can I would appreciate a contribution to the cause. One way or another, the cuttings are going.

Regular give away format. Nothing fancy.
1. Your name
2. The next name
3. Etc.

I'll leave this up for a week before I do the big schnitz.

I'm going to need to put off sending your cuttings, if I am able to send them at all. I had to go out of town on an emergency and I was gone for a week and a half. In that time, I lost my Lady Luck and the ventrata is not looking happy. It will come back, but the vines are definitely suffering from lack of water. If I am able to get it to recover as it is, I will go ahead with the cuttings. Otherwise, I may have to trim it back in order to save the main plant.

I will keep you posted.
