Looks interesting and i've seen some 'mini' maxima seeds offered in Ebay.
I hope it's still available.

Thanks for posting that, ol! I was looking at that last night. So much variability, even just among the small forms!

Cheers,

Joe

The "mini species" from Kledang looks just like some basal from the main plant. :laugh:

it is also written by the blogger :

"Botanists have no name for it yet and as discoverer, we have submitted pictures and our findings to the botanical authority"

gee, very sweeping remarks indeed. anyone who has been hiking to nep country would find pitchers of that size & know that it is basal pitchers or pitchers from a young nep plant.

it`s like taking a pic of a newborn elephant & calling it the new pygmy elephant. heheh.

alienfx : sorry no offense yah. you probably do not know.
