Nice update.

Leaves on the lowii possible ephippiata, don't look like either of those plants. Depending on where you got it; it could just be a commercial hybrid. It is always hard to tell at that age.
 
Here is are some old photos I found to compare leaves:
nepenthes-ephippiata-small.jpg

This is N. ephippiata when it was about 3 years old.

nepenthes-lowii-small.jpg

Here is one of N. lowii at the same age
 
Funny, looks a lot like the lowii x ephippiata cross. I wouldn't discount the tag just yet, unless you were told otherwise.
 
good looking plants. i dont think that is lowii either, the pitcher is too squat although the leaves look like a match. how's lola doing?
 
Mark, the plant was from wild seed so I dont think its a commercial hybrid, I got it from J so I'll ask and see what he thinks. Mat, you did mention he did have Hose mountain forms so perhaps that could be it.
 
I added some LED lights to supplement my t5s. I have the LEDs turn on for an hour before the t5s do and turn off an hour after the t5s do.

Amazing plants and I love the live sphagnum. It makes it look like a jungle. I thought the inermis pitcher was a deformed Utricularia leaf at first.

Plants look great, Luca. I didn't know we could make a slideshow with flickr? Makes the thread much tidier.
