As promised, here is another form of this hybrid. All are original seedlings and each has different characteristics that make them unique for breeding.

They range from dark reddish, to maroon-pink and even purple-black.

I believe there was a controversy over the N. sumatrana in this cross. I believe what was used instead of sumatrana is beccarina. Does anyone recall the remarks made by Geoff regarding this?
It would hold true since none of the offspring have the distinct sumatrana pitcher shape. A combination of sibuyanensis and sumatrana would yield some squat pitchers, yet many from this grex are tubular.

I remember him saying something about that in a thread at the other forum. Can't remember the name of the thread or anything else though
