WOW! That's probably the prettiest spectabilis x aristolochioides I've ever seen! I hope mine looks half a good as yours in a few years.
 
This is my Nepenthes x Kohala (N. kampotiana X maxima) X (N. fusca X veitchii)

The first pic is from a week ago, but the pic I am entering is the second one I just took. You can see how it has colored up nicely. Pics aren't the best quality, sorry. Hope you enjoy anyway!

Nope, it all looks sad because of the lack of sunshine hours in the winter :cry: maybe I'll try to see if I can't scare up a little something pathetic for you though..
