funny becuase mine has curvy wings, but a nice wide peristome and dark colors like your darker one! weird. your look way better than my lil fella though. Need to pamper him more i guess.
 
They are both gorgeous. At first glance, I was going to say the darker one was the one I preferred. But, after looking a little more, I think I prefer the pinkish coloration on the first one better. A wonderful cross, to say the least. They are already showing some nice teeth.

xvart.
 
OOOh thanks for the partial advertising Adam lol. I won't tell Andrew.

They are looking good! They tend to open lighter and darken as they age as you can see but some do get darker than others. This time of year all of my plants look really blah with the short days, and lack of sun in the greenhouse... I really need lights out there! I think it will be interesting to see how they differ as they get more mature and show even more individual characteristics.

The black one is going to be really nice when it matures:)
 
Love those two, the dark one looks really special, but the red one is not bad either. Actually, some of the older pics posted here did help me to decide to get this hybrid. Okay, seeing EP's photo of a big pitcher did help too :grin:

Anyway, I received them quite recently, and was lucky to get more than one specimen. The biggest have dark pitchers, although not as dark as the one posted here. However, I am still very happy with it. Now I am just hoping I will be able to grow them well too.

Regards,

Christer

Wow, the darker clone is starting to show such potential. Love the flared peristome. My plant is also very dark, but the last pitcher isn't that great. Probably due to me knocking the plant out of its pot..:censor:Hopefully when it recovers it'll look like yours. What a beauty.
