POTM Contest: September 2011

My god. The first entries are all too beautiful and amazing. I believe this month's contest will be very tough.
 
Lowii and crosses are waaaaaay cool. They have spikey lower pitchers, and gaping upper ones! Plus I like the general shape and pertisome and pitcher colour. :p
 
Ok, N.macrophylla because it's drooling :p

Pitcher opened up 2+ months ago and still looks gorgeous.. small, perfect & gorgeous.

Hey that's a nice pitcher mass, love the shape of it.

Man competition is STIFF this month.

I still think I'll enter something. I'm definitely gonna make you earn that tenth place mass. :-P
 
Mass, seeing as veitchii does not have a prehensile tendril, nor does it form true uppers, you can assume that when you cross it with a species which does do this, that the occasional tendril will not be prehensile, while others may be.
 
Alright, here it is, the show stopper. The giving 11th place a run for its money! The ultimate!

N. ventricosa x glandulifera

I've gotta say that Carnivoure12's spec x aristo gets my vote, but I've always been partial to that particular plant! What an awesome peristome...
 
Here is my entry. My Nep. hamata clone 1. At just 6 months it makes the terms. Not a winner but I'm proud of it, and hope it grows up to be a plant to be reckoned with. I like the color in the new leaf. Not it's biggest pitcher it's grown for me, but it is just starting to take off for me now that I have it in stable conditions.

That Spec x Spat is HUGE!
I would enter something, but I would
A lose
B I don't even have anything open except a tiny gracillis pitcher. Well, I may enter it just to see how I place :-))
 
I believe Exo called it "tiny and awesome": glabrata! :spazz:


First pitcher in my care, so I'm proud of it!
