Anyone have a very young N. spec. nova sumatra?

I received this one this week and I'm curious what your immature plants look like (seedling pitchers). I was under the impression this plant made jacquelineae sort of pitchers right away (as with jacquelinae) mine however are taller and tubby bottomed with many fringe hairs and a slightly fat lip.
Does this commonly describe very juvenile pitchers of this plant?
 
sword I can't remember very well, but I have never seen hairs on mine.....can you please post a picture?
 
Hello Swords,

perhaps you have a natural hybrid with N. ovata. I don't know wheather my plant is a hybrid or not.

The plant I got from Michael Schach:

Hi Max,

They look OK to me. I hadnt realised that BE were selling this plant?

Mine looks similar to that first one. with the hairy pitchers.
 
I just picked up one of these that originated from Wistuba. Looks like Max's first plant. Can't recall off the top of my head if it is "hairy" though. I'll check this evening
