N. singalana x hamata

[Dexenthes]

I could not even properly wait until it opened all the way.

I see teeth!

For me it has been growing, not like a weed, but very steadily, inflating every tendril it has.

I know they're small, but I'd love to see others'.

She's got teeth! Very nice little plant, I love how the dentition on hamata hybrids is so understated.

Thanks! I'm guessing that they wont be very understated in this cross.

I was thinking about it and singalana x hamata represents pretty much the first cultivated cross between two legitimately toothy species !

Very jealous, Dex. Yours is growing way faster than mine. I'm too embarrassed to even post a pic of it after seeing yours.

that is very cool. I have been very tempted to pickup some of the hamata hybrids that are out there but I am way to worried that I am going to just kill the plant.

Very awesome Dex.

 

[Dexenthes]

Thanks everyone!

The nursery I got this from appears to be out of stock, sooo there's gotta be some more of these out there.

Anyone else get one? I know Mato did, any others?

I did too but mine lost all its pitchers when I got it. It hasn't grown any new ones since I got it about a month ago.

Well, I take back my original post on this thread. I decided to stick my head into the grow rack today and see if I could find any pitchers that were growing out of view, and sure enough, the singalana x hamata was indeed growing a pitcher after all. I never saw it because it had developed within a mound of live sphagnum, which I removed for the photo.

 

[Dexenthes]

Looks good to me!
