Very minimal but still existent lid hair from the dad.

Daddy's teeth, not as extreme as N. singalana x hamata, but still there and looking good.

Rather large wings, relatively speaking. I like the interesting little speckles that are only at the top.

Obviously enjoying mom's significant side tendril placement.

Thar she be.

That is a pretty thing, indeed. I didn't get this cross because I speculated that with talangensis as one parent, the pitchers would never be very large, and the teeth unlikely to be pronounced. I was surprised (pleasantly) to discover the seedling spathulata X hamata actually displays prominent teeth and will undoubtedly get quite large as it matures. Still, I think you can look forward to some interesting pitchers there. Thanks for giving us a look at another plant of this rarely illustrated cross.
 
I've seen slightly larger specimens and I have to say: It's a nice, toothy plant. I chose to forgo it because I already have a (vent x sib) x (tal x ham) and was curious how that might turn out. Cool plant and hope it'll do well and grows large for you. :)
