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.... You get the idea ??

Like an old saying "The force is strong in this one"....
i agree wt you....

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*
i knew that......
