Hi there cpnut! The seeds were given to me by Mr. Nong from Neofarm in Thailand when I bought from him some vikings and red amps. He gave me quite a lot and these seeds and almost 100% germinated for me. I realised there were quite a few that were different one from the onther because one of the 2 that I gave Cindy also looks different.
Cindy has one that also looks different from mine and TS's. Cindy, if you are reading this manybe you can post the picture again for everyone to see. Tks.

Could it also be variations from the same gene pool?

Haa, haa, he got me there too. I was like... hmm, why is that "off topic" thread here?!
I understand that the Thai people calls mirabilis x thorelii N. tiger, but I understand that they also have another form which they say produces very huge pitchers. They call it N. king tiger. I am not sure of the difference in appearance between these two. Can anyone explain? Perhaps there was a little mix up in the seeds or a hybrid between these two when it was given to me, but Mr. Nong told me they were N. tiger and not king tiger. just wondering...
I love these plants as they were really vigorous grower.
