Here's one of my 2006 seed-grown Nepenthes hamata with its first pitcher of Spring 2010, having just opened this very morning. By later in the week, the peristome will acquire its dark red-black color; and I had hoped to get at least one last shot of the pitcher while still closed -- but "missed it by that much" . . .

cp connection, sarracenia are not a valid entry in this contest....this is a nep contest, i was thinking about starting one for sarrs in a couple months when everyone has stuff growing.

There I IMG link them for you.

Very cute is it a female or male?

 

[Nepenthes101]

Thanks Indigo for helping me with the IMG link. From what Sam Estes told me, this plant is a male. I actually received this plant in a trade with Sam as an Extra. I know, a Free Eymae x Veitchii H/L, lol.
Me and Sam are good friends and trade plants every now and then.
