Default Re: Unknown nep hybrid

Thanks everybody for your help. Appreciated.

Ali,
I got this "bonus" nep as a nep seedling inside a pot of nep I bought in Thailand. Found this "hitch hiker" when I'm repotting...

There's another possibility that it might be a N. mirabilis x xcoccinea because I have seen this hybrid widely available in Thailand plus the fact that this nep has thin paperly leaves like N. mirabilis. I believe if this hybrid involve N. rafflesiana (plus the raff in x coccinea) , it's should have more traits from N. rafflesiana like pitcher shape and thicker leaves.

I will update this thread when this nep is more mature and making uppers. Thanks again.
