Why do you feel EP's truncata x spectabilis is superior? Mine is an EP as well, so I'm rather interested in your opinion on it. Well, I'd be interested anyways.. but still. :rolleyes:

The plants are still young, so neither has shown their full potential. It's just my opinion, but compare and contrast:

Truncata x spectabilis (EP's):

Spectabilis x truncata (Leilani):

The peristome on the EP hybrid appears larger and more flared even at this early age. The two pitchers are roughly the same size too.

huh.. I really like them both. I agree with the EP having a nicer peristome shape, but I like the coloration of Leilani's better. It'd be cool to have a mix of the two! Or maybe I'll just have to be as cool as you and get both. :awesome:

Gorgeous pitchers! I especially love the Spectabilis x aristolochioides, cute but with lots of attitude.

The pink one is gorgeous too! It's gotta be one of the nicest colored neps I've seen. I'd love to see pics when your pitchers open! :)
