Status
Not open for further replies.
Rules are simple,
1.Photo must have been taken this month, no pitcher age limit
2.Plant must have been in owners possession for at least 6 months prior to entry
3.Plant must be clearly labeled in the owners entry
4.If more than one pitcher is in the photo, it must be clarified as to which is being entered into the contest.
5.Photo updates of pitchers are fine, and more than one photo is welcome, however the photo must be of the same pitcher, no other.
6.Winners may NOT enter the SAME pitcher again after winning, another pitcher on the same plant is fine but NOT the same pitcher
7.Entries may be changed at any given time in the contest, however the previous entry must be edited and pictures removed, and new entry clearly labeled in a new post.

Contest will be closed on September 30th at 12:00AM PST
Good luck and lets get another good set of neps
 
Me first, LOL , I had plans for entering my lowii x campanulana this month , but I'm so proud of my Burkei, from near nothing back at the first of the year, and with a little advise here, I've been able to turn it totally around.
This is the first pitcher that has made it to the floor, I just hope it opens and matures enough by the end of the month to make a nice show.
Hope DVG dosent enter his , its the most beautiful burkei ive seen.
I'm striving to have mine look as nice DVG's.

Updates! She's all colored up now. Letting it rest on the moss definitely helped this pitcher out a bit!

Mrs. yo , the lid looks like a burkei lid:0o: very nice pitcher, and nice pics too.
i need to up date mine before the month is out.:blush:

Thanks everyone for the compliments btw :-D ... don't wanna detract from the pics with lotsa me saying "thanks" for the gorgeous genetics of the cross. If I can get it to vine and have lots of leaves (which is a thing I'm struggling with given my low humidity...keeping lower leaves..) I want cuttings of this plant spreading out because I just love the orange tinge to it and the almost succulent nature of the pitcher.

last update, Its about as dark as it will get , and will stay this way for about two weeks, then will start to brown starting from the lid and move down the pitcher , I cant wait for this nep to start producing uppers.
