Wow! I don't know what's crazier, the pitcher in pitcher, or the pitchers that size plant produces with such a small leaf size!

It would be funny if it grew large enough to rip the 'host' apart!

Nice Pitchers...

I see that a lot on my Ventratas that are big cluttered masses of basal shoots

Those pitchers are HUGE for that leaf size, my goodness!
This looks so funny! XD I was JUST thinking about pitchers growing inside pitchers this morning, too.

It really looks amaizing, I have not seen somthing like that before, also it looks nice how the wings of the "host" continues in the new pitcher
