Oh... It probably has to flower in my possession, huh? Well it has another pitcher about to open. When it does I'll take a picture and post it. My bad.

Ah, rule #8.

The plant itself needs to be owned by you for at least 6 months. Give the rules on page one a read through, remove/edit your post if necessary. Either way, we look forward to your future entries.

Merry Christmas! The pitcher has colored up a bit, I thought I'd share.

N. spectabilis x talangensis

 

[Zhilin]

It's the most beautiful N. spectabilis x talangensis I've ever seen. What's the humidity level do you provide to it?

 

[Brokken]

I think a better rule to replace #8 might be that the pitcher must have developed and opened under the person's care.

dex that is one sweet looking plant ,not seen one before

Thank you! It's between 60-100% depending on how often and vigorous I mist it.

That would be a sweet amendment. It would definitely open up a lot of pitcherbilities.

Thanks man! There appear to be not all that many of them I guess?

I completely agree with you.. but I was told NOT to change the rules when I picked this up. Vote on it? Democracy rules..

The pitcher shown is about 6in tall, and the plant has been in my care for about 3 years now. It was 4in when I got it, and now it is nearly 2ft.

 

[corky]

you find it grows quick then i would say

 

[mato]

I warned him his dreams would be crushed by the competition, but he wouldn't stop begging.


Meet, sibuyanensis!

 

[nightsky]

Oh man love that tubby pitcher.
