Picked up these little guys at the LACPS meeting today.

This is the hybrid I've wanted to get my hands on for some time. I had an opportunity many months ago to get it, but a certain forum member, who shall remain nameless, stole it from me ;)

Anyhoo, when I heard there'd be another one at the meeting, I jumped all over it,

N. spectabilis x aristolochioides

I had a little more money after that, so I grabbed up this nifty little alata variant. I was told it makes pretty large pitchers for an alata. It reminds me of N. reinwardtiana, one of my favorite nepenthes species.

N. alata var. elongata

Awww That spec x aristo looks just like mine, watch out they're droolers!
 
Nice grabs! They're both so cute :D
 
The spect x aristo is tiny in real life
 
Good finds. You'll love the spec hybrid. It's quite prolific!
 
wow, nice neps. :) I love the N. spectabilis x aristolochioides.
 
You made some very nice choices. :)
