N. naga, the latest pitcher:

I am still firmly of the opinion that plant is cultivar-worthy....I have never seen another Nepenthes, let alone N. naga, getting as dark as yours....

Actually, I have a couple seed-grown N. bongso that have very similar coloring. And I believe there are a few other clones of naga from this seed lot that are just as impressive as mine.

I'm starting to suspect Whimgrinder used Zymol on his pitchers, because they're always so beautifully glossy, rich and shiny.

A huge seed grown Nepenthes hamata from Gunung Lumut that we received from a good friend recently. I had traded him the plant around 3 years ago as a tiny seedling and he grew the hell out of it.

Guess who the parents are:

 

[hcarlton]

Ummm...sibuyanensis x 'Lady Pauline'? That's the best I've got...

You got the first part right!

 

[sflynn]

sibuyanensis x spectabilis?

 

[SerMuncherIV]

Just sibuyanensis x maxima?

 

[hcarlton]

I take back my original guess... but then I also cheated and looked on your blog, so I won't spoil it for others

My plants and his are entirely mixed together. We have pretty much come to the agreement that by the time I have the capacity to have my own collection again, everything will be huge and propagatable so we will end up both having the same plant. There are a few exceptions of course (i.e. The super slow growing & difficult species). Most of the photos I have just posted are mine, with the exception of a few species and the large EP hybrids. I don't know if I'll even be posting content on this forum for much longer because every time I do there is minimal response from the community, the Facebook groups have become exponentially more active.
