hmmm....if you breed lowii hybrids wt the mindset of only having 'hairs' underneath the lid just to have the reminiscense of n. lowii.....don't you think its a bit of waste? don't you want the hybrid the inherit the wide opening of the pitcher? just my 2 cents thinking....*biggrin2*

Just to get the under the lid hair?? No way.... *biggrin2*

The "hair" is a good indication that the N. lowii trait is strong in the hybrid. Why N. lowii is so sought after?? It's because ofr it "out of this world" upper pitchers.... :wub: You get the idea ?? :smile:

Like an old saying "The force is strong in this one".... *biggrin2**biggrin2*

And not to mention, almost all lowii hybrids, when they hit upper pitchers, they produce SPECTACULAR pitchers.....mark my words. Take lowii x truncata. When I first saw the lower pitchers, it looked like truncata with some more colouration and the lid hair. But once I saw the upper pitchers.......WOW *speechless*
