It could just be genetic diversity in the species; sometimes an unusual one stands out, and is referred to as a "sport". - Rich

CPNut - It's been raining too hard to take pictures but I will when it lets up. Do you have a shot showing the leaves on your plant (like my first shot)? Like Hongrui said, it has the patterning/veining like a raff leaf that I don't see as pronounced on my other mirabilis plants.

I think there's some difference but mine is only producing lower pitchers right now.

There are SOOOooooo many forms of N. mirabilis all over the distribution map, perhaps the most abundant and common of all species, and to me, I would just write it off as a pure N. mirabilis, but a nice form. :1thumbup: - Rich

I agree, there are soooo many forms! CPNut - thanks, yours shows 3 main vein-like lines on the top side of the leaf, now take a look at the first of my pictures on the first page. Probably as Rich said, just another N. mirabilis! I used to not even bother with them but found thast they are a great first CP to use as give-aways, as even newbies have a hard time killing them! :tongue:
