Thanks for all the kind comments.

The flower photo was taken a while ago. This is a difficult plant (for me, at least) and I was
excited to see it bloom. The pollen has been put on a couple females. If any seedlings result,
I will post an update. Here is the stalk yesterday:

Pitcher produced by this plant:

Just for fun, this is N. hamata - kataposa from Big Bella:

This flower stalk had a deformed, crestate appearance, and I was surprised to see normal
flowers develop. N. truncata x (thorelii x aristolochioides):

Cheers...
