Nepenthes maxima seedlings Giveaway Part III

I will be pulling out a few of Nep. maxima wavy leaf seedlings from this setup http://www.terraforums.com/forums/sh...uild-log/page3. I have not seen any signs of the wavy leaf trait in these seedlings so it is likely they are mislabeled or just too young. So keep that in mind and label accordingly.

All you need to do is post up an photo that you have taken yourself, of any carnivorous plant, the winner will be chosen by my 14 year old son!

Sweet! By the way this was the first native plant I ever found in its natural environment. Still amazing to me that it survives in that climate. Thanks rss.
 
Well guys I don't know what to say. The generosity and love of plants on this forum never stops astounding me. I received my "seedling" yesterday and I don't know where to start. First we have had an early taste of winter here so RSS held of on shipping to line up with a break in our weather. Next I received the box and to my surprise it was a large Styrofoam cooler, the type usually used to ship aquaria animals. Opening the box the plants were tucked in perfectly with a heat pack that was still very warm.
Now about this "seedling"! Even with my limited experience with cps, I have germinated and have some nep seedlings of my own. You have to darn near use a magnifying glass to see them! To call this plant a seedling is a stretch. This plant is a good three inchs across with a half dozen pitchers and more on the way! Wow thanks RSS for your generosity and I assure you I will give this plant as much attention as you obviously have. Im also pretty sure one of the leaves is showing the wavy leaf look? I will keep everyone updated periodically. Good growing everyone.
