N. lowii x ephippiata is such a cool cross, not only in reality, but also in theory. It's not very often that we get to see what two species that are so closely related will produce when they are crossed. I think as plants like yours grow older they will really give us insight into what it is that defines a particular Nepenthes species.

Some other really interesting crosses in the same vein would be something like -

N. hamata x RHH

N. attenboroughii x palawanensis

N. edwardsiana x macrophylla


/tangent

Really impressive collection though, excellent work with all the genre.

I have no vested interest in most hybrids. Other than a few naturally occurring ones, they're not much more than curiosities to me. I think that N.lowii x ephippiata will be interesting not only because the parent plants are so similar but, they are also among the oddest and most unique species out there.

hairy hamata x hamata was actually made a couple of years ago by two growers in the UK. They're growing well now and will hopefully shed some light on those two forms (or, more likely, species).

Yeah I thought I remembered reading about that cross being made. I haven't seen any photos of the offspring yet though!

Beautiful... and looking at your cistiflora, I think I can say one of my mystery plants is some form of that species....and it's starting to climb too!

Thanks. I looked at that pic in your thread. Definitely something in the cistiflora complex.
