Yeah, I wasn't planning on doing anything right away. It has 2 shoots that go off of the main plant, and those each have 2 or 3 shoots off them.

By the way, JB, I am extremely jealous of your jacquelineae. That species is on my list.

Sounds like a great plant to take cuttings from. Here's a great description of the process I used: http://www.carnivorousplants.org/howto/Propagation/NepenthesPropCuttings.php.

The jacq is a great plant. Unfortunately its also incredibly delicate. Mi e is just now starting to do well again after last summer. I'm hopeful that it will start pitchering again soon.

Alright, thanks. I really like the alata, and it would be creepily pleasing to me to have several clones of it. In the research I've already done I've already read that web page about 5 times so I'm hopefully on the right track

Good luck! Can't wait to see some pictures when it does.
