Nepenthes Giveaway

Dexenthes

Aristoloingulamata
Hi Terraforums.

I purchased a plant not too long ago and when I received it, it turned out to be a bizarre tissue cultured, three - headed monster. Luckily, this plant seems to be pretty vigorous and after I immediately divided the three heads, I kept the largest growing stem for myself (which was attached to the largest root mass). The other two growing stems I clipped off and both of them had a somewhat notable bit of root still attached. After potting them and acclimating them I have noticed new and notable growth from both of them, so I am assuming that whatever root I left has been growing and producing side shoots.

Regardless, up for give away are two healthy, apparently growing Nepenthes glandulifera x boschiana.

Largest pitcher that I have (from the plant that I am keeping).

So!

Shipping is on me.

Two winners will be decided.

One that comes up with the most eloquent, beautiful and satisfying description of why they like the two parents of this cross.

And one that writes the best haiku about why I should give them this plant.

You can shoot for both!

Cheers.
 
N.Glandulifera and N.Boschiana, unlikely pair
with hair and an open invitation awaiting
when crossed a mind-blowing creation

this has been really fun, thanks for the opportunity
 
all the great many bugs to eat
wish I had some feet
there all caught in my sticky dew
don't think i'll go bleep
 
My haiku:

Hairy Nepenthes
You bought one but received three
May I have one, please?

;) fun giveaway, thanks for the chance!
 
Sweet Words guys! Just a couple things:

The poems have to be legit haiku's to qualify. And nobody's done just a description of the two parents and why they are awesome!
 
Parent plants attribute haiku:

Long and elegant
Glorious maiden red lips
Hair like flaxen locks


giveaway haiku

Lovely little plant
Care for them like a loved child
To share is their fate
