I always can't get multiple pitchers with N. lowii x campanulata, the best is only 2 pitchers at one time. It's sensitive to humidity.... That's just me, maybe others have better results...

At least you get 2 pitchers at a time Rob,for me only 1 pitcher at a time. The other pitcher won't start inflating before the previous pitcher opens.

How bizarre behaviour..:spinning:Have anyone experienced this??

Hi Ali,
It's not a strange behaviour, that's how the plant response to unfavorable conditions. Eventhough this hybrid can adapt to L/L condition, it's still not comparable to the adaptability to some of of the "intermediate" hybrids I listed ealier. Perhaps since this is a seed grown plant, there should be different variability to the adaptability for each different plant, just so happen mine is not the one that can adapt to L/L condition better... :sweating:

Well, I hope mine will adapt to L/L conditions without problems. Maybe because campanulata is close to intermediate conditions, thats why the plant doesn't easily adapt to L/L conditions. One parent is H/L, the other is closer to intermediate....just observing, may not be right.

On the other hand, lowii x truncata is very tempting....but extremely expensive :smile:

Too late. All lowii x truncata seem to be gone. They aren't on the list anymore.

Just got my lowii x campanulata today. For the old more expensive price because I ordered already in october. Doesn't matter ... happy that I got it :)

It's nice and healthy. Not so spectacular yet but it's a young plant. Here are two pics

Yes, I did. A lowii x campanulata.

Boris, that is ONE nice young nep. Seems like I'm not going to regret my decision on buying that nep. Even at that size, the peristome is colourful....:1thumbup:
