NASC Auction will open in...

Read the rules first :)
NASC auction is OPEN!!

N. albomarginata purple/black

Mine has green pitchers but it is still young. The picture of it had black pitchers and the people told me it would be black. So my questions is if the pitchers are green now will they turn black or do they start black from the beginning?
 
they will turn that color with age...just like a young ventricosa where it is half green and half red...it eventually turns all red.

That's good then. The thing is that there are all these kinds out there I just want a black/purple one. Just like my tentaculata that is on the way.
 
Just remember it could be a green form. Sometimes there's people selling so called "black forms" on ebay. Then they just turn out to be typical green.
 
I hope that's not the case here. I didn't get it from ebay. I got mine from a dealer. I hope it's black. They look so nice.
 
For anyone who is highly desireous of this hard-to-obtain plant...there is one in the...AUCTION.

what I want to know is, are the N. albomarginata for sale here truely the species or a hybrid? I've never seen that sort of spotted pattern on one before. (picture enlarges if you click on it)
