The color patterns are so beautiful. Very unusual! Do you have a photo album anywhere?

After looking at the photos @ Flickr, I'm ready to sell my soul in exchange to those plants!

'Master, will you accept me as your humble servant?'

I'm totally in love with the fancy coloring on that N. ampullaria! So very much alike an army fatigue!

Very nice photo album! All your plants are so healthy, and well labeled too.

While many would disagree with me about your mottled Hookeriana is by far better than any red Hookeriana, the color and form of the speckled is a hands-down winner in my book.
Love the color of that upper as well!

Hi KK,

My jaws dropped when I saw your collection too.

Nice tricolor. may I ask where this plant was collected from?

Please update more from time to time.

Rgds,
Isaac

Thanks everyone. So lucky to have this N. hooker. And hope to learn more about Nep from you all.

This is the parent plant (N. ampullaria), I think the darker colour is from N. rafflesiana.

Hey, the parent plant (ampullaria) has a unique speckle too huh. Looks like dual colour. So the third colour of it's offspring comes from the other parent. Let me know if you have spare cuttings of this hooker and amp.

kk,
Your album is truly amazing, must be very satisfying walking around your garden.
How do you manage to go to work each day.
