Hey, johnathan......thanks for the comment. New Trio got lots of this guy.....only RM25! I got mine for RM 20.......hehehe.:laugh: I repotted it in a mix of LFS, peat moss and perlite. Accidently ripped of a basal shoot during the transplanting process.......:crying:but i am sure that it will grow back.

Hmmmm.......ventrata? OK....it shall be named ventros........:laugh::laugh:

Cheers

N. x ventrata. Remember to put 'x' for hybrid name.

Yes it's xVentrata (alata x (ventricosa x alata).
Nice healthy plant you got there...congrates;)

Aliam,

Interesting, actually from what I understand Ventrata is Ventricosa X Alata only, now what you said is interesting wonder if there is actually such a hybrid (probably there is) Alata X Ventrata (Alta x Ventricosa) anyone have picture please share, and also the hybrid name if there is.

Hi Arvin,
Technically, xVentrata is (alata x (ventricosa x alata) from my reserach.
