Klossii clones

[nimbulan]

I heard about the old clone coming back earlier this week. From what I understand, they managed to save one culture, but have dealt with repeated contamination over the past 5 years and have not known until now whether they'd actually be able to save it and start propagating it for sale again. Of course it wouldn't surprise me if that happened before releasing the new clones too.

Good news! Now if sellers won't relabel the other questionable clones as this one...

My 227 (BE-3774) isn't a bad grower so far, seems to be establishing itself well. An interesting characteristic I've noticed is the leaf continues to expand well after unfurling, a characteristic that I've seen in relatively few species, the one that comes to mind right now is N. villosa.

Nice plant so far. The angle of the mouth seems promising so far. Seems like there is a faint fuzz on the pitchers and tendrils. Is it present on other parts of the plant?

The entire plant is densely covered in short, white/golden hairs. So far all all of the clones look very similar, I haven't seen any pictures of young plants that look like N. maxima hybrids so far. Supposedly the batch numbers represent BE's confidence of purity:

BE-3773: 60%
BE-3774: 70-80%
BE-3775: 90%
BE-3776: very likely pure
