Show your Nepenthes dubia

Sadly I had to declare mine officially dead 2 days ago:-( I'm not sure what went wrong, but it started a decline after summers end.....
I'm heartbroken... and seeing a 40 something woman cry is a pretty pathetic sight.......
 
amph: Somebody else just commented on how dark my N. aristolochioides leaves are too... I'm not sure what I'm doing different from you guys other than doing it more wrong? The plant gets natural San Diego sunshine ~1pm-5pm daily, 67ish F day, 50ish F night and a coffeeing every 3-9 months (whenever I feel like it?). Bring your N. dubia to come visit mine one of these days so you can compare for sure ;)

All of you have pretty nice N. dubia. Maybe I will try one if I can find more places in the future.

Just a question: How tall the N. dubia can grow? Your pics show the distance between nodes is much large. So I guess even a small N. dubia may be relative taller than other species with the same cross size.

Oooh...if that's what yours look like, mine should go through a growth spurt and shoot straight up with the next coming leaves! (mine's half the size of yours, Giordano)
