That monster specimen looked kind of dirty, like a potato.
Is that the vogelii I sent ya?
I'm liking that pointy lidded alata.
I've seen some that do look like that when mature. S. alata is really, really variable and I confuse it with rubra sometimes....
What's the more appropriate media of choice? I went with a sandy peat (plus orchid bark and charcoal) bog with a lower layer of water.
