Default N. truncata x spectabilis pitcher

This plant certainly made it in my list of favourite neps because of 3 reasons:-

Very beautiful! Love the striped peristome from spectabilis and the truncata shaped pitchers!

Expected to be big(and it's getting bigger now ) thanks to truncata genes!

A vigorous grower, not "scared" of repotting or sudden change in conditions. Hardy I would say.

The biggest and latest pitcher so far at 4 inches, give or take. It's fatter rather than taller compared to previous pitchers :-

Dyeriana is great, but this has truncata in it, with huge size! And spectabilis awesome colouring! Will post my 8" dyeriana pitcher when it matures
