Looking good! Brokken, the (vent x sib) x TM hybrid, does all the seed grown plants exhibit the stripes from it's TM parent? Or the majority retains the reddish peristome of the former parent?
Roko: From the ones I've seen of the (vent x sib) x TM, a lot of them start out very red with even darker red red stripes. The pitchers become lighter as they get larger and have a tendency to darken as they become senescent.
Along with Sib x TM, this was the other gift to myself that I got this Christmas. I thought it prudent to plant it right away rather than gift-wrap it and wait for Xmas day. This is perhaps the most beautiful N x tiveyi that I've ever seen and as a bonus, it's also a female. This pitcher did not develop in my care but rather came from Mitch Davis. I hope the plant will recover soon and start making my own pitchers some time in spring:
sir, you are seriously boggling my mind. this is why i love growing different CPs together---each one complements the others but retains its own essence. beautiful photographs! the fact that you put them together like this combines their power of appeal over 9000!
