Picked up these little guys at the LACPS meeting today.
This is the hybrid I've wanted to get my hands on for some time. I had an opportunity many months ago to get it, but a certain forum member, who shall remain nameless, stole it from me
Anyhoo, when I heard there'd be another one at the meeting, I jumped all over it,
N. spectabilis x aristolochioides

I had a little more money after that, so I grabbed up this nifty little alata variant. I was told it makes pretty large pitchers for an alata. It reminds me of N. reinwardtiana, one of my favorite nepenthes species.
N. alata var. elongata
