Pitcher of the Month January 2013

[mylesG]

Hard to compete with that campy but heres my N adnata

 

[mass]

The denim really sets it off..

 

[mylesG]

if we were getting judged on the background id have a nice pair of jugs behind the plant

 

[mcmcnair]

Those jugs are full of fertilizer and rainwater right Myles?

 

[Wire Man]

Where did you get that? That's one on my list.

 

[mylesG]

it came from Drew Martinez

the jugs are 100% narural, as far as ill describe em

 

[mato]

Great species that we don't see often enough.


@Wire Man: Tony currently has them available.

 

[n bicalcarata]

hardy - how do you grow your campy its like a min of nep and heli which is epic ive never seen one grown that well

 

[mass]

I'll add some stripes to this competition.. as usual.
N. veitchii x lowii (EP)

 

[BioZest]

Very nice plant there mass. Love the huge peristome curling gradually into the trap

 

[mass]

hey thanks. The pitcher is pretty beat up due to the rebuilding of everything here, but I still think it's a hottie..
Never gets old for me.

 

[Dexenthes]

I'm going for first place with this one. Sadly it's all I have at the moment and I hadn't entered in a while so I might as well!

Alaskan windowsill grown N. ventricosa from Andy. This plant has seen quite a lot in its day and I am quite pleased to see it producing pitchers like this even in my absence.

 

[Sundrew]

Awesome ventricosa! It is even more spectacular because it lives in Alaska. Great entry.

 

[Tuuagso]

Great pitchers this month guys! I already see the winners, I don't think I could stand a chance...

 

[Whimgrinder]

Well, why not:

N. Tiveyi type, from seed. (N. maxima X veitchii)

 

[mass]

that's hot Paul

 

[Tony Paroubek]

I was out taking some photos and this caught my eye. Pretty much what I was looking for when I made the cross! Some have more stripes and spectabilis traits which is nice too.

N. sibuyanensis x (spectabilis x aristolchioides)

Let me guess, Tony, that pitcher is 20" tall, right?! ;-) Very nice indeed.

AHHHH if only Paul!!! It is pretty decent though around 4" on a 8" diameter plant. So I think it will still gain in size. Gotta love the size N. sibuyanensis gives to it's hybrids pitchers. Which is why I made the cross. I wanted super sized N. spectabilis x aristolochioides plants!

 

[Wire Man]

The specimen of that cross we have at Meadowview look completely different. The pitchers are so much darker and the splotches are more pronounced.
