N. lowii x truncata, 1 footer

Thought I'd show off my favorite hybrid once again . Here are some photos that show the sequence of how it develops from first opening, quite a fascinating process. The pitcher is about 12".

Beautiful pictures Thank you for posting them

Great pics! How old is that one?

Thank you . I think I've had this one for about 4 years? Its original growth point had already formed a long vine (which I cut), but it never made pitchers in the intermediate~uppers stage. This second growth point is showing me the full transformation for the first time .

I've always liked this cross, nice pictures/pitchers! What are your growing conditions like? Does this cross involve a highland or lowland truncata? If it's with a LL truncata, I wonder how it would do in LL conditions. I grow a pasian truncata in LL conditions and it's doing fine. I know N. lowii would never grow for me here, and i really love the plant. I am quite interested in a lowii hybrid with a LL plant, especially one that shares that unique lowii pitcher shape. Anyways, nice plant!
