Default N. lowii x truncata (and others)

Spring is here, and my lowii x truncata is pitchering again, with 4 pitchers coming at the same time.

Here's the first one to open-




And the second one coming in, should get to 12" or so.



Here are the last bath of photos until new ones open up and this one finishes coloring up. It already looks quite stunning, as I can tell the interior is going to go completely crimson red. Love this hybrid.

Thanks for the compliments. The big pitcher opened up today. I think it's about 13" right now (though the pitchers keep growing after they open). Now I feel like a proud father :P .
