This pitcher was found while I turned its pot around to cut away dried pitchers. It sent shivers down my spine.

Hi Cindy
That is different for sure,not crossed with a pineapple is it?
Bye for now julian
 
Red leopard uppers?

Nah, I don't think pineapples grow in singapore, more like a cross with a durian...

Awww....Cindy, I don't think you're hideous and I think you have fine parentage!

But that pitcher looks like one of those 'ugli fruit' I see in the grocery store!

I wouldn't be quick to register it as a cultivar!

gross...
 
That is bizarre..
The top half of the pitcher looks like N. campanulata, and the tendril reminds me of N. bellii, but I have never heard of that hybrid, so.....I have no idea.

Looks to me like it has some khasiana in it. I think those little protrusions are nectar glands, or maybe roots, but I doubt that.

EDIT: Drat! I was wrong about parentage... no khasiana.
 
thats sooo cool just need to cross it with a truncata and a hamata!!!!!

ehh.... i dont think so.  isnt it suppose to have a diff peristome for it to be camp. x veit.?

I did not think it looked veitchii enough either, but what dlybrand is alluding to , is you can look at the properties of the photo and see that it is ...camp x veitchii, lol.
I saw the camp in it and knew that hybrid existed, but fell for the old "Trivial Pursuit" hazard(usually the correct answer is your first instinct, but you can easily talk yourself out of it).

Bill's so sharp! I was wondering if anyone will notice. Anyway, it IS N.campanulata x veitchii. The pitchers were really boring...until this happened.

Although it is a weird growth, I hope there will be more...

Actually I didn't look at the file name- I grow this hybrid as well

Though mine does not display this deformity (yet!!).
It is becoming really rather an attactive hybrid- so give your one time Cindy!!

cheers

Hmm...looks like that the pitcher has dermatitis.

Campanulata x (Khasiana x Mirabilis)

or

Campanulata x (Albomarginata (green-form) x Mirabilis)

Just a punt.
