Default Re: My garden and some neps are waiting for their ID :D

Hi D-GenX,
I moved this thread here since it's mostly about IDing neps.

From your pics, this is what I can say,

1) Possibly N. viking x rafflesiana.

2) Maybe N. mirabilis x sp. tiger, sometimes also called as Giant Tiger

3) Could be N. mirabilis x coccinea but most coccinea hybrids I saw will have striped peristome. Maybe this nep is still young to be able to see it.

4) Might be N. x kuchingensis (N. ampullaria x mirabilis) but still a bit young to be able to 100% confirm.

Most nep still young so it's hard to give more precise conclusion. I have a feeling these nep hybrids originated from Thailand? Correct?
