My raff., var nivea opened for me recently and was timely for close comparison with the nigropurpurea. I forgot i should bring the pots together pitchers side by side for a grouip photo



The lid top is awesome

the contrast between the nivea and the nigropurpurea form is fantastic.

I have to agree they are great specimens. You are right about the lid.

Thanks to everyone for the viewing and comments. Yes Tarence the pitcher was about 10" long for the nivea form and just fully open, nigropurpurea was 2" shorter.

Seriously, If I had the blessing of a greenhouse, it'd be a lowland one with raffs, truncatas, and their hybrids.
