NASC Auction will open in...

Read the rules first :)
NASC auction is OPEN!!
I have some Nepenthes mirabilis - Penang, Mengkuang Titi plants for trade. They're decently sized; the larger ones are 8" to 10" diameter and the smaller ones are 4" to 6" diameter. Most of them are turning out to have a red peristome with varying amounts of red in the pitcher. I'll post some pics illustrating pitcher variability a little later, but for now here's a slightly dated picture of the plants for trade:

I'm looking for-
similarly sized lowland/intermediate nepenthes that are not on my growlist (or are different clones/sex)
Lecanopteris mirabilis
Lecanopteris lomarioides
Drosera ordensis (location data preferred)
P. planifolia (location data preferred)

I also have seeds of
Drosera filiformis "Florida all red"
Drosera indica (typical/scented)
Drosera intermedia - Cuba
Drosera burmannii - Beerwah, Queensland, Australia
Byblis liniflora

which I'm willing to trade for seeds of
orange or red flowered D. indica
byblis other than liniflora

Here's what you should expect as the plants mature.

Most are turning out to have a reddish-brown pitcher coloration such as this one (not a great pic, I know):

A few are turning out to be a very nice deep red:

And so far among the larger siblings, I've only ended up with one mostly green plant:

It's still too early to tell what color the available seedlings will be but most show at least some red coloration.
