Ok, here's the plan...
this boy N. Miranda:
plus this girl aristolochioides x thorelii:
This will hopefully resemble the aristo x thor cross in general shape and rapid growth speed (I got it as a six inch diameter "seedling" from Tony last August, now it's a two meter vine (two 1 meter vines) and flowering and making uppers! But maybe my cross will produce huge pitchers and tolerate lowland conditions. We'll just see what happens!
But I will only do a few flowers on the aristo x thor with the Miranda pollen and tagging them. Since Nep flowers open in succession if anyone else has some interesting pollen to donate for the next crossing feel free to post it here or PM me. Of course the pollen donor get's a 50/50 split of any seed produced with your pollen. This is the first time I've done a cross so I don't know how successfull I'll be or not.
Anyone in need of pollen I have the following available now or it will be soon:
N. fusca (now)
N. Miranda (soon)
N. maxima x? unknown hybrid yellow (soon)
Take it easy folks!
