Nepenthes (/nɪˈpɛnθiːz/) is a genus of carnivorous plants, also known as tropical pitcher plants, or monkey cups, in the monotypic family Nepenthaceae. The genus comprises about 170 species, and numerous natural and many cultivated hybrids. They are mostly liana-forming plants of the Old World tropics, ranging from South China, Indonesia, Malaysia, and the Philippines; westward to Madagascar (two species) and the Seychelles (one); southward to Australia (three) and New Caledonia (one); and northward to India (one) and Sri Lanka (one). The greatest diversity occurs on Borneo, Sumatra, and the Philippines, with many endemic species. Many are plants of hot, humid, lowland areas, but the majority are tropical montane plants, receiving warm days but cool to cold, humid nights year round. A few are considered tropical alpine, with cool days and nights near freezing. The name "monkey cups" refers to the fact that monkeys were once thought to drink rainwater from the pitchers, however this is false, the pitchers are filled with digestive fluids not water and monkeys do not drink from them.

Spring in the Desert
Claret cup cactus is native to the desert areas of the American Southwest. It grows wild in Juniper Pinyon woodlands, creosote scrub and Joshua tree forests
On our holiday they had great cups with just the right handles. I know this is not an original idea, but I just wanted to do this for a long time. So indeed this is not very creative, yet I think the outcome is appealing to the eye.
The red background is made of a light shining through a bottle of lemonade.
Espresso, as long as it's decaf, I drink it every day, usually a latte in the morning. Have to admit it was an acquired taste, picked up in Italy.

Found these colorful plastic cups with great shapes that make an interesting still life. Finding all these forgotten items stuffed away throughout the house to hopefully photo during the quarantine.
Thank you all who fave and comment on my photo'/video's,much appreciated.And thank you all for looking.
You wouldn't believe it, would you? I really do have 2 square cups. Almost impossible to drink out of them but I like them for what they are. I am sure they will make a proper appearance on day. This one was my second choice for Macro Mondays (corner)
My sister-in-law collects arty objects so it is always fun to visit their place and see what I find. Have a good Wednesday.
