some hybrids & species
 

i'm a bit of a species snob, but some hybrids are just too good to be passed up on:

Hongrui,
Fantastic, your N. Gothica with dark lip stunning me.
N. truncata x xTM is nice too but strange that N. izumeae x truncata is red. Btw thank you for share.

Re: some hybrids
 

I like your gothica too!

Re: some hybrids
 

thanks guys.

N. izumeae x truncata has been difficult with me and i have never gotten a really dark pitcher on it. this is the first pitcher on the basal that is sizable & hopefully subsequent pitchers will be darker.

Re: some hybrids
 

Hey great to see you and your plants back again Hongrui! 'Me too' on the N. Gothica [EP]! and love the 'pouty' lip on the Exotic lady!

I like N. Gothica [EP] & N. truncata x xTM [EP]... They are really nice!!

Re: some hybrids
 

Man have to get a gothica for myself one of these days

Re: some hybrids
 

Wow excellent look plants.

Hate to be then one to ask but what are the parent plants for the N.gothica..?

Re: some hybrids
 

N. Gothica = N. sibuyanensis x maxima

Re: some hybrids
 

WOW!! your neps are super nice.How do you grow them?

Re: some hybrids
 

Both also highlander!!!! :crying:

Re: some hybrids
 

Casey i think the maxima parentage will help us lowlanders a little :)

Re: some hybrids
 

Hey Casey,don't worry about the xGothica.It is choosed for it's colour,vigour and hardiness.

It grows very well in my place though.The pitcher size increasing in each leaf.;)

Re: some hybrids
 

my plants are grown in my garden, in the open. but i have the assistance of sprinklers coming on 4x a day to water everything and cool things down a little.

Re: some hybrids
 

Nice neps... love your nep hybrids and species. :wub:

Re: some hybrids
 

thanks rob.

Re: some hybrids
 

I love all your neps especially your veitchii :wub:.What media do you use for your veitchii?

Re: some hybrids
 

thanks. for veitchiis i previously used a mix of pine bark + peat/perlite. but now i'm using charcoal + a little bit of sphagnum moss, which i think they prefer.

Re: some hybrids
 

Haha,thanks for replying.By and chance,can you sell me a cutting of your veitchii if you have any?
