Do you ferlilize them? Nice wild look. ![]() Love the N. veitchii x (maxima x veitchii). Peristome so wide... The red strips makes a very nice contrast to the background green of the peristome. I have a miranda and the uppers are similar to your mixta but pitchers are straighter. I noticed your mixta's uppers are curved like a horn. Interesting.

I still don't known how to differentiate them.

But if I based on your picture jk, I'd assume, that Mixta would have a more pronounce horn shape. Is this the correct way to ID the plant?

The lower and upper pitcher looks like Miranda, but the leafs grow more compact compare to miranda. ![]() ![]() ![]() Link to Post - Back to Top ![]() New Member ![]() member is offline ![]() Joined: May 2007 Posts: 42 Location: Honolulu, Hawaii ![]() « Reply #5 on Dec 22, 2007, 2:46am » The ID of the "Mixta" is questionable. It was sold to me with a different name tag that was incorrect, according to even the seller. Since I am worthless at IDing Neps, I asked for help on another CP forum and posted photos of the pitcher and leaves. Mixta got the most votes, although Miranda was a close second. I fertilize my Neps with half strength fish emulsion and seaweed extract every two weeks or so.
